Learning from the Practices

While painting this cutie, I learnt that hamster's ears are round at their tips, different from  a fox's or  a dog's ears.

Now this cutie looks more like a hamster.









The next 'babe' in the making.













A work in progress-  one of the challenges I have taken up.
This one is in soft pastel , a medium which I am very new at.  I am still at a discovering stage.  I have a long way to go.....









Another challenge...a work in progress...a watercolour painting.   I have been staring at it for two weeks after sketching  and was wondering how to paint so that it will give  an out of the world kind of feeling....hahaha...I am too down to earth to produce it that way, I suppose.

Painting of a Hamster-a work in Progress

This painting of  the cutest hamster in the world is for my friend( ex-classmate since 1971)  whom I have met only 2 years ago after we separated when we completed our junior high.

Su Chin....I am beginning to love painting this and because of you, I have started to love painting mammals and  I will start a series of paintings of  these animals.

The next stage...Penang Scenery

 Almost completed...just the buildings on the opposite shoreline, and rocks in the foreground...
got to view this with head tilted to the right...the reflections of the pillars of the Penang Brige on the calm sea were too captivating and irresistable to try painting them...

Malaysian Scenery...Penang

 A work in progress...
Another work in progress ....or is it work in 'distress' ...hahaha....need to make some corrections...on the street lights......not bright enough....and I haven't done the reflections yet...just too difficult at the moment when my mind cannot focus.




All these pictures were painted from snapshots of Christopher Harriot, a local , and boy , his photos are too awesome! I think I am not doing credit to his photos...hahaha...You can get to see them  FAA(Fine Arts America)
