My new found skill

Every since I was kid, I used to love drawing. I remember my favorite subjects are house and Victorian dress.

Kids before loves to draw this for this is dream dress they wanted to wear unlike now a day, it is sexier and lesser clothes.

In high school, I was influence to engage in abstract design. One of my classmates is good in tattooing. He only uses a ball pen and started his masterpieces in the hands of my classmates. He then put a talc powder to eliminate the glossy effect of ball pen. The finish work looks like a real tattoo. Since then, I started liking it and follow. I have had been doing it until now that I am a teacher, however the some of the medium has changed. I’m no longer doing it in the hands nor in any parts of the body but I do it in the paper. Sad to say, I didn’t have a sketch pad for this. Whenever I got bored, I started doing abstract designs whatever paper I am holding. Guess, I finally realize it now, when I am writing this. I will buy a sketch pad and start my masterpieces.

During college days, I also remember I got a flat 1.0 in Art and Humanities. One of the things that we had drawn was sketching a human face. My subject was Abby Beduya or also known as Priscilla Almeda.

Of course, this is not my sketch. I lost the copy of it. Sayang! I would have been scan it and post it here. Nevertheless, good thing there are photos that are accessible in the internet.

But now, it was changed. I seldom draw for I used to write lesson plan and compute grades.  Sometimes I just do the abstract designing whenever I got bored.

For today, I found a new skill which I am happy for it. What I am up to? I am up to banner/badge/button/logo and header designing using adobe Photoshop CS3. Designing into a next level is one of the achievements that I had. My husband is a web designer and programmer. I just don’t like to rely all the things I’d like in all my blogs. I started to learn this Photoshop when I wanted to have a badge but he was busy then to make it for me. So, I started to explore.

Here are some my work.

*Note: All of the photos are made my someone, I just edit it.
