The prize has arrived

I was very happy the other days to open my mailed package from Canson France and get the most desired supplies I won for the Daily Qwetch Competition: 2 sets of 50x65cm Canson Drawing and Watercolor  paper, 5 Canson mixed media A4 Sketchbooks,  3 professional Drawing sketchbooks and another 3 small sketchbooks. I'm all set up with paper for a couple of years! I should get another prize when all are full!

Celebration

Birthday Illustration inspired by the little people in my family. I seem to have a lot of friends and family members that have birthdays this month.

Happy Birthday to all of you!

Very proud to win a contest!

They say success comes after repeatedly failures! Well I'm proud to say that after a couple of art competitions that I flunked out this year I won the The Daily Qwetch contest, ending on the 5th place and winning most deserved Canson Supplies and other goodies. Cannot wait to open the mail and treat myself with another Christmas present. Life is good!

                       

Christmas Card Illustration

My Christmas Card Illustration was published in the Art Council of Surrey Magazine SPOTLIGHT, the December issue. The artwork was included  in the Christmas Card Exhibition held at  Newton Cultural Centre. You can still admire the submissions until December 20th.

Buffet-Illustration Competition

The Italian Organization Tapirulan is proposing an Illustration Competition with the theme Buffet. I was very excited to participate with my digital piece All you can eat-Buffet. The winners will be announced in the middle of Nov, which gives people a lots of time to look at the submissions and comment it. I would appreciate any comments for my illustration ! Thank you!

Character Design

One of my favourite animated films, Happy Feet had unconsciously inspired me  to create this character! Still have to add texture.

The Season of Flowers

Every day I go to work to South Surrey I get to see these beautiful irises at a corner of a street, now about to lose their fragile petals and life because of the heavy rain drops. It was a great inspiration for me to make the piece below, as a wedding present for a friend. The Bird of Paradise flower is just mesmerizing to look at!
