Journey: Here and Back Again, Pt. II

I haven’t added sound effects yet but this is the draft for the video! It’s a stop motion animation (sort of), about a paper man, a clay lion, and their journey together. Due to my shaky cameramanship (Yeah.. that’s not a word isn’t it), you might feel a bit dizzy watching it at some parts. […]

Linespirations, Pt. VII (Final Work)

‘Lines’ project is over! Never thought I’d do such a major project in the first few weeks but this was super fun. It’s all ogre now. All four boards. Details.

Linespirations, Pt. VI

Almost there! These are actually leftovers of my final lines, I purposely made them all bigger than the lines’ dimensions so I can just cut away the parts I didn’t want. I felt like the cut-off parts deserve a spotlight of their own, so here goes! These ones are exceptions, though- they were […]

Linespirations, Pt. V

Was doing this for embarassed line but was too dark in the middle and it’s so hard to get a subtle grey with this technique so I abandoned it. Ink on folded paper I’m totally loving the pattern it produced. Brushwork for exhausted, also abandoned it cause it looks a little too energetic for an […]

Linespirations, Pt. IV

Franz Kline feels on Chinese calligraphy paper but it didn’t work out well because it’s too flimsy and absorbent. Spiderweb for fragile, but I felt like it was too literal. I loaded a brush with ink and started splattering the ink so it would drip down (I did not make a mess of it in […]

Linespirations, Pt. Monoprint

These are my monoprints which I didn’t use. I’m glad I experimented for quite a bit but kind of sad that I couldn’t use them because I didn’t feel like they conveyed quite what I wanted them to. Monoprints using stencils These were actually my first monoprints and I was super excited using stencils […]

Linespirations, Pt. 0

These are the visual journal hard copy pictures, I scanned some of them but they didn’t turn out great so I decided to take pictures instead. Automated drawing first trial Artist Inspiration page I found a shape in the automatic paper collage!Sol Lewitt lines trialVan Gogh feels with the brushstroke quality. Cut paper, paper […]

Journey: There and Back Again, Pt. I

Rough draft for a (probable) voiceover. I said probable cause I don’t really like the way my voice sounds on recordings (nasal and squeaky). When you go on a journey, you hold the map tightly, thinking of places you’ll go, people you’ll meet, the great unknown, what lies beyond the place you call home. Keep the end in mind, but […]

Linespirations, Pt. III

I sprayed my one-dollar coins and Indonesian coins! They leave these negative circular spaces I used for ’embarassed’ line. At first it was too dark cause I sprayed too hard, but I re-did it and got what I wanted heheh. Experimented with twisted tissue paper dipped in ink, turned out a little too structured […]

Linespirations, Pt. II

Hilma Af Klint feat. Sol Lewitt: Circles and circles and obsessively straight lines. I ship them. It’s kind of therapeutic doing these cause you don’t really need to think? I know you’re probably supposed to think about the composition or something of the sort, but while doing this I guess it was really nice to […]
