My Brother’s Amazing Arts

My Brother’s Amazing Arts

My brother Kuya Lito is a great influence to me and an inspiration! He see’s life as one big canvass where the master can paint whatever, however he likes… with “total abandonment” if one chooses to…

His “mantras” are, among others:
“Begin with an idea and then it will become something else.” (quoted from Picasso)
“Every single day we woke up is another step towards our ultimate end….and it’s just up to us if we dread about it or look at it as a chance to live life to the fullest – one more time!” (own words)
“Jump off cliffs more often and build your wings on the way down!!!!……(though most of the times i wonder…why the hell did i jump?” (own words)
“Most of the time great things come out when you create with “total abandonment” – when you are not afraid to fail, when you don’t think about impressing others, when you don’t think about all those rules, when all you care about is – self expression”
“Just do it!” – by nike

Sunset Jump Shots!

Sunset Jump Shots!

The pictures were taken at our favorite farm that witnessed a lot from our childhood days! Taken during sunset, that’s also our favorite time to play!

We just had a great, great time during and after our gift-giving activity, the day before Christmas! If there is one moment that I will choose to just “stood still,” this will be it! I came to believe that life is CREATED for moments like these. No other trimmings, no other frills and fuss, no fancy place and ambiance… but just laughs, fun, and great time… surrounded by family and loved ones and nature and blessings! (Made even better with the presence of my brothers Lito and RIcky and their kids, especially Chuko and Deanne plus Te Leli! – whom we have not seen for 10 years….)

Memories are made of these! Wow!

A New Blog Header in-Progress

I am excited about getting a new look for my blog…. Thanks a lot to Tara SG for the ideas and support. Actually, after just few correspondences and email exchanges, she created a nice design that I liked instantly… I just asked for a few enhancements, but she really pulled it off nicely….

To give you a peek, here is Tara’s sample (in progress), see this site!

My Red Studio

My Red Studio

I been busy lately setting up my “studio” which i will officially call, “Red Studio”. It’s my first effort to start indulging to my artistic, crative side. i imagine myself that whenever I’ll have a burst of inspiration to do “arts” (or just create litter), I will go there and do it without much of preparation or planning.
My medium? I do a bits of scrapbooking, I have a few old watercolor paintings, I can sketch, I’m learning more about journaling, and I’m very good in doing school projects of my sons! … So maybe I will mix all of that and do Collage Art! (thanks Kuya for the wonderful sites you have shown me!)
I believe I’m not yet old enough to tap my sleeping talents… I know its there, but i’m just afraid of trying, or to put it precisely I’m afraid of knowing that maybe “it” was already lost! Fear! Fear immobilizes us! Fear stops us from trying! but not anymore!
SO WHAT if “it’s” gone by now! I can always start! Vincent Van GOgh started Art when he was 36! as in start from the scratch! So it’s never too late.
