wow, my first time blogging on the class blog! thanks to hyperxi i finally recalled my long lost username and password, haha -__- i've got more photos of even more amazing [hard to believe, but, YES, there were pieces which were more amazing and jaw dropping than ours] batiks which are TOTALLY stunning! like, you totally wont believe these people have been doing batik painting for less than 2 days. hai! life is not fair. this whole arty thing. it's either in you, or it's not [do i sound like heidi klum? hahahaha] haha hope you all had fun too! batik painting was great :) oh ya, 2 last things: 1) some remaining stacks of model essays and ISSUES at class bench. GRAB THEM BEFORE THEY GET CLEARED AWAY!!! 2) blog more! give me something to read when i get back, haha!
anyway, the one last good thing i'll do before i scurry off tomorrow is to post some photos to brighten up this otherwise uh photo-void blog.
so it begins that calvin, zhexi and i signed up for lomo art but it was cancelled abruptly so we decided to go for batik painting. it was a pleasant surprise as i found the process to be weirdly therapeutic [sp?], even the smell of wax was mildy appealing. hmm, after having no art classes for 3 years since 2003, the idea of expressing myself thru art [no matter how bad the art turned out to be] once again was really refreshing.
okay enough talk, let's see some of what we did! :) calvin's piece of san fransisco [crap, sp again]. oops it's upside down. unfortunately blogger doesn't allow me to flip and i'm too lazy to do that. just. imagine :)
the hot pot with MOLTEN wax in it! it's really cool to play with molten wax. everyone should play with it someday.
mr ooi's impression of the beach. pretty neat huh? [ask him who drew it :P]
MY lollipop-frenzy world! calvin said it looked like a snail with a baby-head [?!?!!?!?] okay, i'm thinking, that's just calvin. i'm sure the rest of the world can tell it's someone licking a lollipop :) haha! while everyone else does serious stuff like beautiful landscapes or images of still life...i do something as frothy and frivolous as...sweet round balls. oh gosh.
the too-shy-to-show-their-full-faces artists and their amazing pieces of batik! great isn't it? :)
