Love, Pinkie!

I am featured by Love, Pinkie! :) Click HERE to read my full story!

Side note: 'Love, Pinkie' is a book which tells the story of Pinkie, a young girl confronted by the daily bombardments of internal struggles prevalent in our fast-paced, perennially wired, 21st century society. It is about life, self-worth, technology, materialism, beauty, friends, family, singlehood, BGR, sex, abortion, religion and dream. Sounds interesting already? Then you ought to check out the author of this book, Christina Siew, from SINGAPORE! By the way she is only 27 this year!! I am going make her share her inspiring story with us soon...

My Works At Esplanade Shop

As I've mentioned, you may now find my works at another store and it is inside this HUGE 'durian' of Singapore. Yummy~

(Esplanade, also known as the 'big durian' is a performing arts venue for local and international performances).

Esplanade Shop is located at, 8 Raffles Avenue #02-02, Singapore 033801.

Their management is pretty strict with the 'no photo-taking within the shop' rule so I wasn't able to snap photos on some of the coolest stuffs they carry. Apparently you can find a wide variety of merchandise in this shop. From postcards, music cds, books, apparels, fashion accessories to their signature commemorative coins of the Esplanade. If you're here on a holiday, be sure to drop by and bring back some unique souvenirs with you!

How can you not get a lovely note card to go with that special gift? ;) My prints are also available here.

Also, when you visit the Esplanade from now till July, don't forget to say hello to these erm........... interesting looking guys. These ethereal figures are the creation of Pakistani sculptor, Khalil Chishtee. See how he transformed the plain-looking plastic rubbish bags we use in our daily lives into these inspiring work of art.

My favorite! Isn't he the coolest?

I can't help but wonder whose these belong to.................... Lol.

Could it be hers???? Oh my, someone pls help her down!!!!!

You may even find these adorable comic doodles along the stretch of wall at the underground leading to the CityLink Mall. Anyone is welcome to 'vandalise' them! 

The chinese phrase, '天天向上' means to be keen in learning and progress everyday.

Hahaha. This is so cute!

Latest Work!

I couldn't get the idea of black roses out of my head, so I came out with another version from my blue/purple ones. Did this in ink (pen) and shaded the background in photoshop. Yay! I got my black roses afterall. :)

Now I need help to name this piece. Anyone? A VERY helpful friend suggested, 'Blah Blah Black Rose'.... Thanks but no thanks. I'd rather keep it as, 'Dark Romance'. -___-'

Print will be available for sale soon (once I decide on the name!).

Sorry, there won't be any print for this. I tried printing it at the printing shop and the color tone came out all wrong.. :(

Rose Garden And...... A Little Smile

I'm not surprise at all to find molds growing on my color palette when I took it out from the cabinet. lol.

Finally I have something new to show. 'Rose Garden', I've named it.

I love roses.... only blue ones... or purplish flowers like the lavender and forget-me-not. I wish there are black roses. Someday I'm going to try to grow black roses. :)

Prints are not available for sale yet. Pls stay tuned for more info.

This evening I ran into two friends at different time. Had a little chat with both of them. It was pleasant. :)

When I got home and opened my email, I was greeted by a lovely message from this wonderful customer who bought six postcards from me weeks ago. The message goes like this,

''I just wanted to let you know that I received the postcards yesterday in the mail and they are beautiful! Thank you! I'm going to frame these and put them on my wall! What a wonderful fusion of art and music. LOVE IT!!!''

Funny how at times when you wasn't feeling your best, things like this happen; you ran into friends or friendly strangers on the street... you receive a sweet little gift when it wasn't even your birthday.... your favorite song came on the radio.... someone complimented you... and........ you smile that smile of yours. Suddenly your day doesn't seem so bad afterall.

Did someone or something make you smile today? Pass on that smile. :)

Eggthree and Christmas Lightings at Orchard

Last night I attended the flea market held by ACRES at Loof. It was raining cats and dogs.. in the midst of a mad rush, I left my camera at home! And very unfortunately, the camera of my handphone has a lousy night mode function, so no photos taken :( Apart from that, it was a fun experience. We bought a couple of second hand clothes (donated by lovely folks) and guess what? The 32 cards I contributed were left with only 7 pieces at the end of the day! Thank you everyone who were there last night to show your support for ACRES and for my works. (If you're scratching your head right now, pls click here for my previous post).

Talking about photos, below are the ones I took at my lastest consignment store. Eggthree is located at Mandarin Gallery, 333A Orchard Road #04-26, Singapore 238859.

There is every reason for you to swing by now because the whole stretch of Orchard Road is so beautiful! I'm sure you wouldn't want to miss these...

Oh I'm so looking forward to Christmas!!!!!!!

PLUCK

Hello everyone! It's the weekend again. Thank you for all the well wishes.. I have fully recovered and I can finally snack again (in fact it has already started a few days back). :p

Two days ago, I made a visit to my newest brick and mortar consignment store. I was delighted to learn that sales was pretty encouraging in a mere two weeks. :) Located at 31/33 Haji Lane, Singapore 189226, PLUCK carries a selection of vintage home furnishings and fashion accessories. There is also a little ice cream parlour that serves homemade ice cream and yummy desserts for anyone with a sweet tooth like me!

 My works are displayed right in the middle of the shop. :)

As well as on the third shelf.

More images and information can be found on their website here. For those of you who may not be aware, my works are currently for sale at several brick and mortar stores across Singapore namely, The Coffee Nations, Cat Socrates, Forest N Trees (click on the names to visit my posts on the stores) and the latest, PLUCK. Pls take note that Anthropology is no longer in the list. If you are planning your next vacation to this lovely sunny island, I hope you will include ONE of these stores (or two, or three.. ) to your places-to-visit list. In advance, I thank you for your time and support. :)
