CHILDHOOD SERIES #1
Hi guys! Glad all the illustrators had introduced themselves and made themselves comfortable on the blog. I would like to invite illustrators to share and post their working habits, or their process of creating a piece of illustration. So here's mine...
I came up with this illustration, solely for the purpose of practicing while I have some time off to myself this month. To begin with, I came up with a theme, and after an hour going through various nature reference books, I was all set to go. The sketch was done with pencil on paper. Scanned on flatbed scanner at 360dpi.
The sketch was brought into Photoshop CS, and I choose to use photoshop's default brush setting to give me a consistent texture. Followed by deciding on creating simple lighting, tones and colour scheme for the illustration.
Almost done!
And finally everything seems almost in place, I added noise to the entire illustration to give it a matte finish.
Dear fellow illustrators, I value your comments, and I look forward to sharing more post like this one in the future! Happy drawing!

20/20 MOVEMENT EXHIBITION
The 20/20 Movement is back in Singpore after making its rounds at the London Design Festival.
The concept behind “20/20 Movement - Singapore Design Tour” is based on the fact that the Singapore design scene is moving, in a movement where both DesignSingapore and local designers are pushing boundaries.
It will be held at the foyer of the National Library (next to Hans restaurant)
Exhibition will start this Sunday 29 October.
See works by local illustrator Sonny Liew and Fleecircus (hah hah)!

Mint
Hello! i went to the mint toy museum today - highly recommended. $10 per entry for 5 levels of gorgeous vintage toys. It's at Seah street (opposite bras besar). Also while you're there check out Artvsts exhibit at Citygallery! (ending this month).
HELLO
Hello OIC! It was a pleasure meeting you all. Welcome to our playground. Here are some ideas to kick this blog off. 1) Say "hi" in your own way. 2) Do a self portrait. Ugly also can. 3) If you could be a food today, how would you look like? Draw it! 4) Anything you find interesting.
