I created this by doodling on my sketchbook when I first started this.

It then develop to linocut block. Click here to see how it looks like.

I then moved on playing them in digital form on computer.

Below is one of the 'format' how it turned out to be.

Feels a bit like pop art to me hey :D

Lesson learnt today: Do not feel little for what others got to say about you just because you are a mum and you don't have time to do the things you used to enjoy. Cuz we are putting our child's needs ahead than ours!

To all mummies, please remember you have done an excellent job!! XO

My Creative Space: Tippy Toe Bird + thoughts

First up, please ignore the sub-header for time being as am still mucking around doing some rearrangement in my blog.

* * * * * * * *

Anyways, it's My Creative Space once again!

Still remember I have set myself a daily challenge early this year. That was to create an art a day, multiply my day. Hmm, there should be about 128 days. So, you can imagine I have more than 100 pieces of masterpieces and they are waiting for me to execute them, to share it with you. Well, hopefully they are ready to be purchased very soon. Hopefully it can landed in some lovely buyers' house too! :D

I have shared a colorful sneak peek shot via here yesterday. I thought why not, share it all.

So this is the concept drawing I had done...

and again...this shot...;)

Please meet Tippy Toe Bird..

It is now available to be purchased on my Etsy's store :)

I have been sneaking in and out from the studio doing some creative works while juggling taking care of my 7 wks old girl (I relate her as Peanut in my blog).

An interesting question to ask:

Do you still/keep having dreams (and make it happen) even after having your own family?

I know I still do and I want to achieve what I have set for my dreams/goals ...even after giving birth. So yeah.. imagine multi-tasking one handed...typing away while having her sleeping on the shoulder or maybe nursing her while sitting in front of the computer or make a few clicks on the mouse while she is asleep like now or maybe either one of us having dinner while the other one taking care of the unsettle bub..... So, yeah....I may not be having as much freedom as I would like to have. To me, when there is a will there is a way. Everything is possible. I know am not alone cuz I know I can make it. It's just the matter of time, like how soon.

Head over to the mother of My Creative Space to find out more inspiring stories, more creative inventions which I believed would truly inspired you to be one of them too. Enjoy your Thursday! :)

It's a bird!

Was meant to post this yesterday but was constantly being wanted by Peanut. So here you go! :D

This is what I was doing yesterday early morning.

1. I am very particular and specific when comes to finished print's colors (to have it as close as my screen's colors).

2. I also get to look into how to rearrange my blog's layout. I felt my skills had gone rusty after not hanging out in blogging land for so many weeks. Any ideas or tips on how to create more pages? It looks like those little additional features' buttons are gone. Or ..am I wrong? Please enlighten me if you could...

I've mentioned I will be relaunching my Etsy's store with a bunch of new stuffs late last week. I have different plans after some thoughts over the weekend. Mainly because I have to find time juggle amongst numerous tasks. Not easy.

Am always a big believer on Slow and Steady Win The Race. I think that is very important not to rush into things. So I thought, I would feel comfortable include a piece or 2 of my masterpieces into the store every week... just so I (well, Missy Minzy of course!) will be FULLY ready (hopefully with some lotsa good surprises too!!) by then. :)
