H E L L O E M B R A C E: December 2013

http://helloembrace.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html

Tuesday, December 31, 2013. The beginning is always today. LINKS TO THIS POST. Wednesday, December 11, 2013. It's that time of the year again. The end of the year. And just like last year, I created a Quote-A-Month calendar for the new year. This year, since I hadn't done new drawings, it gave me the opportunity to have the colors run in spectrum. Which is probably one of my favorite things to do (arranging things in spectrum ROYGBIV). They can be purchased in my etsy shop. LINKS TO THIS POST.

Sunday, July 28, 2013. So it turns out I have astigmatism and need to get new contacts. I kinda knew I had astigmatism the last time I got my eyes checked but thought I was already wearing contacts MEANT for astigmatism. I'm left wondering why the optometrist didn't prescribe them to me back then, which would've helped long before this. LINKS TO THIS POST. Saturday, July 20, 2013. Birds and the beads. And now Ive grown to have parrots, doves and herons. These are available for sale in my etsy store.

H E L L O E M B R A C E: Lululemon mural project

http://helloembrace.blogspot.com/2015/02/lululemon-mural-project.html

Sunday, February 22, 2015. After much delay and bad weather, I got it completed with the help of some friends and it was a nice way to end the year. The mural is along South Bridge Road at the start of Boat Quay. The above photos by Michael Tay. When you try to make do with what space you have to cut a big ass stencil. This was the scariest part. The stencil was really flimsy and it was pretty windy,. And it was tearing in places. I quite liked it this way. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
