Tribal Princess



She sets the limit as high as the mountains could reach.
She loves the wind as much as it brushes every green on earth.
She is the tribal princess that shed tears over the crying mother earth.

Tribal princess is the Wolf of the night
Who guards over the moon and the earth.

Princess In The Wind


There was time, I wonder like a princess.
Yet, not as delicate as the fairy tale's princesses.

As inquisitive as a wanderer.
As strong as an owl.
As beautiful as the mother nature.

I will be the princess in the wind.

Arya and her colourful feathers.


Arya, she loves her colourful feathers as much as the sky.

"I adore how peacefully-colourful I am, when I spread my wings in the sky." she quoted

Anthea the winter wolf


Anthea the grey wolf.  

She's never as cold as ice.

"Winter snow is just a coat" she says.

Treasures found

Looking around the house in every bits of the corner is just like treasure hunting. Especially when you have a house that is more than 30 years old and your parents built it even before you were born.

Like me, I like to dig into drawers and cupboards in the house to just to spend my morning or an afternoon during weekends. And it always feel like a surprising party when you found things that are not in your era. *you know...those days ^_^

I was going through my dad's drawer today and found these wonderful instrument sets that he owned while he was in college!! Imagine 50 years ago, in a small town, not even a city. There were no computers, not much cars as well, everyone goes to school or technical college by bicycles or busses, and in their bags there were all these high quality metal instruments along side with books, graphs sheets, drawing papers and of course pencil box.  Everything was either made in England, Germany or Japan.  Hardly you can find things that are in plastic. There are so much stories drawn, written and created with these tools.

These are the treasures. The two instrument sets are my parents and the green box of metal writing tools is from my late uncle. *which I have no idea how to use it


Here written as the Metal writing tool set. 




Ah, antique closure.



This is the red Stedtler Tradition, made in Germany.


 

 You open the box by pulling the needles by the two sides of the box. How cool is this!


 The interior is just CLASSIC.


 


This black one is made in Shanghai China. It's the same, you have to pull a metal out from the side to open it. Sleek and classic!



The interior is just so classic. It even has a small cloth for you to wipe clean the tools. A box with so much of attitude and gratitude. ^_^


Dad laughed at me while I said I found such treasures. He said nowadays most people are using computers and softwares to draw or illustrate.  No one will appreciate these kind of tools.  But I said, those tools were the same help tools and techniques that you used in a drawing software. If you know how to operate one real tool, you will definitely know how difficult for an architect to draw a full design plan. If I don't, I wouldn't know the techniques to draw a loop of circles, a drain plan or even the different perspectives of a plan.  Although I'm a video editor and a multimedia designer, I don't use 3D as often, I appreciate "those hands of those days." 

Computers had made our life better, and yes an additional note, it made me respect those who are the pioneer that made Disney come to life.

IF: Revenge - 《The Wolf and The Moon》

This is my version of the Wolf Totem.  A book I'm currently reading.
Don't you think wolves are so mysterious and they are definitely deadly gorgeous!


I always on have my Spotify with me while I'm drawing.



The Wolf and The Moon


I can hear him howling, so deeply and mysteriously.  And it's deadly gorgeous.
I always love things that are mysterious and pretty.  Just like water. *out of the topic?? :)

Have a great night ahead!

Zentangle

It tangles up like a horse or a sea horse, don't you think so??

I did it really slow this time.  I drew for 20 minutes and stop for few hours.  Sometimes I "tangle" 15 minutes before I go to bed.  

But one thing I'll never leave it behind while I'm "tangling" is Spotify!! I went from Canon in D to Coffee House album.  I can continue for hours after that.

Although I've worked on this piece for two days, I never felt tired.



Alrighty!  Next project on it's way!!
