Hello again, colours!



I'm learning the ways of blogging credibly (still) and realised my hazyshapes blog carried a header image whose real owner I couldn't trace back. 'Poop', right? Oh well.
So as a quick-fix, I made my own little doodle. It turned out perfect but it was ghastly for a header.



















Well it wasn't too bad, just um... plain.
Though I love me some negative space, this one right here just felt *sigh* bland.
In the sense of beer snacks with no seasoning.

So I took it to the circus - played with hues & saturation levels of all sorts. Halfway there while the screen rapidly changed colours before my eyes and the dramatic X-Men climax blared on in the background, I struck upon the idea of adding a little pop magic.

While it greatly salvaged the doodle, I decided the format wouldn't work for the header.
So here it is on my photoblog instead.
Why not, eh?

However, today's greatest takeaway for me - I'm shocked at how much I've missed drawing.
Oh colours!
I'm not terribly talented or anything but this one thing I've always done is, mix colours up with odd little textures. hint hint



Well, this little gig today felt hella good and good to be back after all :)

Post Script: I can't believe Cow By Dumpster didn't make heads turn. Hmph.

Consider...





















...the overwhelming rush of blood to your ears when the
sun's directly overhead and you, are soaking, in rum.

Vignette for a dime


Doesn't it always happen?

After a great road trip?

It doesn't quite leave you alone.

Colours in the photographs, those sounds, that smell... keep coming back for you.

And suddenly, you hate your job.


Aah monotony!

Cloud watching.


Do it. It's fun.
You wont believe the things you'll see.

I saw a crocodile version of Yankee Doodle.
It amuses me to no end.
Well.

Blanche DuBois


"How do I look? ...I feel so hot and frazzled.
Wait till I powder before you open the door. Oh, do I look done in?

Boys and girls, Blanche DuBois from Tennessee Williams' A Streetcar Named Desire.

Pssst: I played Blanche in my first big play :)

razzle dazzle 2.0

If the colour of truth is gray, is this whole world a lie? Or is my life?

“I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way; things I had no words for...”
