“There are consequences if you choose to do this.”
“If I did not choose, don’t I have consequences to deal with, those that came from the not chosing too?”

approx. 4″by 4″ watercolor on Arches Cold Pressed

You can see where it came from from the picture below.
I was just doing some color test on a new Arches cold pressed block i just bought. Noticed how right at the bottom right hand corner this image emerged on top of the original tests i did. I love this kind of surprises.

Just a quick sketch over the weekend before the Art & Music Conference 09 organized by the Ministry of Education (MOE).
Basically just having some fun with the blue-greens.
The merge line is caused by scanning as my scanner was not large enough to accommodate the size of the painting.

Been experiencing some issues with my eyesight lately.
Looking into the LCD screen burns my eyes.

So I am turning back to traditional medium to see if it goes easier on them.
Realized working on postcard is a pain. The size falls right between long and short sightedness. Darn!

before, i lived and did my art
why? I never figured it out
it was just a voice
you know what i mean?
i never could understand what my art meant in money
nor what is the value of my art
the question of sales sent me scratching for answers
it once disturbed my peace
now that i understand what money is
i am a freed man
half drunk and enjoying
what the money can’t buy
