WORLD OF FANTASY.

2010 EOY Painting: Play.

A3 watercolor paper, watercolor.

What if toys wanted to play too?

A ridiculous thought that sparked my EOY painting idea.

Surrealism: Nanyang.

A2 canvas, oil paint.

Nanyang in the image of a stoic castle on a freaking floating piece of rock coated with untrimmed tendrils and weeds with a random waterfall falling off the edges due to its flooding of the bathrooms into the pink nothingness that is infiltrated with unrealistically fluffy clouds is the best way I can portray Nanyang in a Surrealist style.

If only...

Japanese Curse Doll.

Lol, I kid about the title.

It's just that I've been randomly doodling on people's books of characters with similar features as this, and it just somehow got known as the "japanese curse doll" because of its somewhat freaky look.

Inspired by Ryden's Incarnation, this is like a copy of its character with modifications such as the dressing and the backdrop.

Fine, I admit the pop-art background was because I didn't have the time and patience to do it, but it turned out quite unexpectedly okay.

I focused quite a lot on her facial features, especially her eyes, to give that empty gaze, but the fingers and toes, I didn't really bother about it.

Love the polka dots, they remind me of bananas:)

Oil paintings from eons ago.

ok. my eons mean like last year or last last year :D

heyyo chiawei, these are done under 王老师. if you even see this.

I dont think they deserve names because they aren't originals. Just modified versions. and i don't have the artist's name.

40cm x 30 cm

this is actually my very very first time i even dared to touch oil paint. not sure why, but i've always had oil-phobia. i guess it's mainly because of its horrible stench from the linseed oil. oh, but whatever, it's all fine now.

one of my favourite. i love how the light seems to illuminate out of the not-so-dense foliage. the time yellow spots did were not there on the actual painting i imitated, but due to my obsession with 'sparkling' stuff, i added them to accentuate the lights reflected on the leaves.

this painting is quite post-impressionist, not really to my liking, but good practice it is indeed. had loads of fun just chucking blocks of paint onto the canvas. i edited the brownish backdrop to be a lil' bit brighter, and a lot yellower, basically because i also have an obsession with contrasting colours.

another thing. i think oil painting is HARD. REALLY HARD.
