Art is a little like looking at the mirror!
we dont necessarily need to be limited by what is reflected back to us!
Why ....sometimes we may NOT even see the same image that others see!
mmmmmm other times, we may need to even use a magnifying glass just to see whats so near and up-close !
so for those times when we need to, a little imagination wont hurt too, we can be purple , blue or black n white but lets not stay Dull ?
Do have a nice day ahead , friends and all :-)
IN SEARCH OF ARTFUL EXPRESSIONS is an art journal of michellechoong_khoo's journey of self discovery to rekindle the joy of art as she remembers it ~ akin to the igniting of passion when exflames meet

This is michelle's compilation of the happy moments spent in search of artful inspirations that often made her lose track of time....
It matters little to her that the sketches or drawings are so random, ah maybe even come across as self indulgent.....
but it matters much to her that the pleasures experienced during the creative process was akin to the joys of first love, of simple satisfactions, maybe even a tad akin to feelings of illicit sinful unpermitted unions.

G= gee golf goody GREAT ? via Bamboo Paper ~ michellechoongkhoo
finally I found the app that marries the best of all that I normally used !
-now i can attach photo reference on the same page to work on the sketch.
-The tools incl stroke size slim medium broad with fill in colors also slim medium broad!
-the colors of 8 is good enough for most uses!
- I can collage a mix of photos w drawing
or doodles!
oooops did I add more apps?
Do I know that my list of time wasters keeps on growing and growing and growing…..Seriously?
Awwww, But they are so irresistable and so much FUN~
What can a girl do?
mmmmmmm as a sucker who's forever looking on the positive side of things ….heh heh Im just gonna say there's more than one good thing about the situation ~
For starters, All these time wasters are totally free!!!!!!
For seconds, they keep the brain cells working because one has to figure out how to work the new stuff :)
and thirdly, it makes great cool art stuff!
Wheeeeee..... definitely G is for GREAT, love it , wide wide smiles…..
here's signing off quickly so that I can go back to working the apps on my beloved ipad :D
