My new "Pen-pal"

I've always wanted a fountain pen. I'm a geek for classic looking things that are practical and most importantly functional for everyday use. I love the elegant and shiny tip, the weight in my hand, tilting it to a certain angle to write, the ink just flows smoothly without much pressure and it just remind me of the quilt pen people used to use during Victorian times. And I must admit that I'm a sucker of movies set in Victorian times. Most of all, Fountain pens are a piece of history which has been used for since century ago....

 Trying my "pen-pal" by sketching a self-portrait.

Finally I got one!! And I must say I am super duper happy with it. Its Parker the Premium edition with a fine tip.
I was contemplating it with the Urban edition. But the latter looks too modern and too light for my liking. And it also only comes in medium tip. So i opted for the one I got now and even got it engraved. Super awesome pen and thank you Universe for creating such a beautiful pen such as this!!

Oh... and that's me in e background. Teehee!

"Midway" Oil on canvas 2012


I posted previously regarding my incomplete painting used for a set in a film shoot. This is the complete version. Very different I know... Took a break from my experimentation and decided to tranquilly paint an image on an experimental background. Enjoyed painting this very much. Its been awhile since I did the traditional blending. Painting this feels like I took a short and abrupt vacation.... but relaxing nonetheless.

My friend as well as a colleague, Carol, said that she finds this painting creepy. Its like bone-chillingly quiet. But for me its just silent. Silent is definitely golden don't you think?

"Wounded sunset" oil on canvas. 18"x24"

Midway

One of my paintings borrowed by Norman (art director) for his set. Extremely new and frankly incomplete. Since its already used for the set, guess I'm just gonna leave it for now... and re-look it in another eye.

I absolutely adore the table lamp. Grrrrr.
