…and the proposed but not selected one…

For the first time, I included my wife and myself in the painting. So I finally have my own ‘family’ painting.:)

For the second painting, I try using colorful strokes and lines to create motions and movements to the painting. This way, I hope to make it more interesting out of something simple.

The last one, which I did for my company, I wanted to create something that looks like a paper-cut and at the same time with a vintage feel:)

Season's Greetings

Below is a close-up on Shermayne’s ‘invitation card’.

Below is how those illustrations look with the text layout. I not sure how the actual signage will look like as I’m not the one doing the layout, just have to make sure there is enough space for the designer to lay the text.

But on second thought, I decided not to use this idea. There are a few reasons for not using or further developing this idea. This idea might seem energetic and lot of fun in it, but my friend (who is the owner of the house) might eventually looks ‘small’ in the final painting due to it’s composition. Also the wife and son riding on the cow with him chasing behind might seem like they are ‘running away’ from him. Hahaha…. So I decided to trash this idea.

Then I begin to work along on something more peaceful and relaxing as I find it to be more appropriate for something hanging on the living hall’s wall. Finally the below sketch was the one that I emailed to my friend for approval.

Upon approval, I began working on it and here is the final painting to be printed out in 100cm x 70cm.
