amy sol



how gorgeous are these illustrations? after such a long day, browsing through amy sol's beautiful pieces has put a smile on my face. i love the soft colours painted on the wood surface, it was so flawless and soothing. she truly is a very talented artist, don't you agree?

eveline tarunadjaja #1


beautiful drawings by eveline tarunadjaja, an artist based in melbourne. she was featured on the latest frankie magazine. from her name i can tell that she's most probably an indonesian, but i couldn't really find any articles/interviews about her yet. anyway, check out more works on her blog as well. great art!

my six weird facts

so happy that tomorrow is australian day, cause that means a day off!!! i really need a break! anyway, i've been tagged by sweet lady imelda to confess 6 weird things about myself. so here they are:

1. i hate dolls and clowns, i think they're scarry. stuffed animals and softies are cute though.
2. i've never had a credit card (but am planning to get one really soon!) since i have credit cards now, thought i updated this one to my other fact.. about food preference. i love olive oil, but i don't like olives, either the black or the green ones. i don't mind ordering dishes which have olives, but then i won't eat them, i'll just put them away at the edge of my plate.
3. it's really bad that i know very little about what's happening in the world, but i don't read newspapers nor watch news on tv.
4. i can't stand to hear/see a water leaking, e.g. from shower or tap water.
5. i can't sleep with a ticking clock.
6. i love checking out other people's bedrooms.

uh oh, i hope i'm not embarassing myself! have a nice long weekend for those who live in aussie, and happy friday for the rest of the world :)

*updated: everyone who likes to play along, please do and leave a comment cause i would like to read your 6 weird facts! other than that, i now tag dawbis, chare, i-blab and sandra - would you like to play along, people?
