Day 02. As we were getting ready for our 4 weeks of self-isolation,I was preparing myself for a quarantine project (s). The initial thought was to get my website ready within that time. I've been neglecting it for a couple of years. The old Read This Story

When I mentioned that I am going to buy oil pastels, E said "Do you even use crayons?" Er, to tell you the truth, no. I hate crayons LOL⁠ ⁠ But as I mentioned in the earlier post, I was intrigued to try an artist-grade oil pastel because I saw how people can make such a solid and smooth gradient with them.⁠ ⁠ It was still messy though, I need to make sure I didn't make a stain on my precious light-colored work chair.⁠ ⁠ What do you think?⁠ ⁠ #thepaperandink

I had a bad experience with crayon when I was younger. It’s a medium that we’re often given to play with as a kids. I actually hate them. They’re messy and very hard to control. Not to mention it was really hard to make a solid color because of the texture. I had boxes and boxes of brand new crayons in my drawer that I never use. They’re given to me just because they think I like to draw. A couple weeks ago, I saw a video on Youtube about soft oil pastel. I was curious about how even the color they produce. So it must be about quality afterall… I must say I am impressed. I am using a rough watercolor paper here so the texture shows, but last night when I tried it on a smoother paper, it easily cover the whole area. Love it! ❤️ More project to come… #thepaperandink #softoilpastels #oilpastels #oilpastelart #oilpasteldrawing #oilpastelsart #oilpastelsonpaper #oilpastelsketch #mungyo #mungyopastels #mungyooilpastels #mungyogallery #mungyogallerysoftoilpastels

Back to my beloved #polychromos ⁠ It's always nice to do stuff with your hand manually. I've been working a lot with digital art lately and at one point I need to use traditional media to bring back the 'feel'.⁠ ⁠ Love yourself tea time.⁠ As many of you know, I always have dedicated tea time. It is usually around 2.30 or 3 pm. I will always have snacks ready for those special times. Sometimes it can be just a bikkies. ⁠ ⁠ After I got pregnant, I kinda lost interest in my dear black tea with milk. So, these days, I will only have warm water or maybe a hot chocolate.⁠ ⁠ Do you usually have a dedicated tea time? 😋⁠ ⁠ #thepaperandink

A few hand-drawn watercolor patterns that I did a while ago for a mini notebook cover project. ⁠ ⁠ The overall theme was Shibori, but I think the koi fish was a bit off the line. I like it, so it's fine :)⁠ ⁠ #thepaperandink

I was drawing this on the bed last night, then E come and asked me which client this drawing was for. I said this one is just for fun.⁠ ⁠ That makes me think... when was the last time I draw for fun?⁠ ⁠ That took me back a bit. I rarely draw for fun. I mostly do commission arts or maybe gift art. I do commit to my monthly #usk meetup but that's it. I remember I was listening to @sarahburnsstudio chat vlog last week and she said she hate commission. And how we as an artist often got trapped by needing to do a commission for the money. ⁠ ⁠ This is something that I need to think deeper about...⁠ Have you been in the same position?⁠ ⁠ Anyway, I've never done a DTIYS before, this one is from @rochewoodworthillustration for her #roche115k congratulations˜!!!!⁠ ⁠ #thepaperandink⁠
