I'm not living in Jakarta, but because the Jakarta Governor Election is a major issue in Indonesia , so i paid attention to that.

Move on, for this week  i made another pattern for my Soceity6 shop.  KOI

Freestyle: Vectorize my Spring Maiden

Hello, this week i still have not back to make another clip arts. Instead I'm SURFING the internet , to refresh my mind, remind me what my goal is and to loads more inspiration.

After that, just for fun i pick one of my drawing and decide to recreate it using AI. I love it! Right now as i'm writing this, I'm thinking to do it again.

As the PILOT for this project,  i choose.... Spring Maiden...one of  my Skillshare projects . Click here for more.

Illustration Friday: HOT

Ever feel overwhelmed but nothing done... In my case.. i often feel like that.
For couple month i felt like... i finish so little, add to that i went for vacation twice, so i am really got nothing done. But yet.. i  feel i am OVERWHELMED all the time ... then i came to conclusion... i am BORED.

I know the WHY... lets proceed to HOW i manage it...
I decided to take day off, of making cliparts . I got comic strip on pending process, my travel review also blog... but... that all had to wait... NOT THE TIME yet...

So... i decide to peek the Illustration Friday web...  for this week topic is HOT ...
This will do, relax yet not far from daily things i do.

While i'm doing it.. then i realize what i want is something INSTANT , something that finish the day that i start it. I do consider cooking and baking... but.. i'll keep that for next time.
Yeap, INSTANT, because usually when i make clipart.. i took several days or week from sketch to finish, not to say the distraction and all stuff  that need to be done on my daily basis. So get things done instantly can cure me, from this bored0loop that i'm going through right now.

And back to Illustration Friday... HOT is the topic, instantly i think fire and think think think , thought thought thought..... i end up with PELE....Fire Goddess fro Hawaiian Religion (?!)/ or Folktales.

I'm open my Adobe Illustrator, and just made it right there... now it finish it's reminds me of my Badges Series that i made (click for more) ...  Anyway.. it makes me happy , now i'm thinking to make another one.. (typical) lol...

At first i made this...
PELE 1
Pele 1

but  then  i explore more.. with hairstyle and colors... so much fun... but i stick with these 4 hair color.
PELE 2

PELE 3
Pele 3
Then... i think this a bit "DESIGN" than Illustration (that i want), i want something that i can put in story book.. .. so because i also have time...i combine my AI with Photoshop......and this was the result....


PELE (Fire Goddess)
Looks like CHRISTMAS... lol... but i'm HAPPY  :)
That's for now... thank you, see you next post ^^
