Hello! We had another mood board assignment but this time, our lecturer Ms. Lisa chose the theme for us! I was chosen to do a "Masquerade dining ball" theme. During the submission, we were all told to display our mood boards without writing our name. Then, Ms. Lisa chose 3 winners for the mood boards. Sadly, I didn't win but I was happy with my work anyway.

I did a gothic victorian theme because I liked the theme very much and it was suitable for the masquerade ball. I chose a very vintage, dark colour palette with a bright colour of chandelier. I also chose different styles of wallpapers and furnitures. I didn't won because it wasn't neat enough and I didn't stick and cut them properly. I learnt my mistakes and will do better next time.

I had a lot of fun during the assignment, I enjoyed doing mood boards and I learnt a lot from it. Hopefully I will received more assignments like this in future.

So I received another assignment, creating our very own mood board. It is based on our interest such as graphic design, interior, fashion & many more. So I've chosen graphic and decided to create a photobook mood board. Here are some briefs and sketches about my idea. Miss Lisa decided that the cityline should be sketched and not make it realistic. Well, an experiment tells the conclusion, so we'll see. More updates coming soon. Tc.

So here it is! The finale. The night before class, I actually stenciled it on an A4 sized plastic sheet. To be honest, it was nerve wrecking. I accepted the challenge to carve the stencil out bit by bit and eventually, it worked!

The impossibruuuu stencil carving.

So the next morning, in class, we started our work. So I taped the stencil on the shirt because I want the paint to go nicely and neatly.

The materials I used to paint.

And my lecturer, Ms. Lisa suggested to add dots to enhance the monogram & it turned out better!

Final monogram!

So, I did a mini version for the baby clothing.

Mini version.

Finale. Mummy & baby.

The final setting for my monogram. I enjoyed the class and was satisfied with my work. Others did pretty well too. Hope to have more classes like this soon. More updates on the way. Tc.

Good morning everyone! I've received the latest assignment which we have to create our very own monogram! So I've been researching about monograms and the elements to achieve the criteria. Here are my samples and sketches of my monogram. My initials are CY, so it's kind of difficult for me.

Among 10 sketches, I chose number 1, 2 & 9 as I did my survey to ask people around & which monogram they prefer. So I have to choose my final monogram to be stenciled and printed on fabric etc.

More updates coming soon. Take care.

I may look like a normal & an ordinary teenager, but I have my crazy wild side too. I like to have fun, but decent fun. I can have fun in my head too, where my wildest & the most unimaginable things flow throughout the room/place.I would say I define myself as mysterious because not well, humans don't read minds & that's the best part.

My artwork is based on one of the art movements which is graffiti. There are some surrealism elements in, but graffiti would be a precise choice. The base looks like a silhouette but instead of painting the figure black, I decided to doodle my thoughts, imagination & my characteristics. My elements contain realistic pictures and drawings as well. The pictures represent my reality which is my eyes, the lollipop (represents food), the heart, my interest, animals, nature & buildings. Those are my favourite things in life & from the real pictures, I doodle and draw my thoughts and widen them into something bizarre.

I used a number of methods which is drawing, collage & painting. My hair represents colour because I love colours! And it also represents my enthusiasm for illustrations and doodles as well. I used tissue paper & painted them with really dilute, watery paint. I don't want it to look really contrast, I like to balance my artworks in terms of colour, minimization/maximization & complexity. I don't like it to be too complicated because some viewers will have trouble visualizing it. So that's it, this is my opinion about myself. portrait.
