From Felix’s Eyes: LOVE:Unnoticed

Today’s Drifting Thoughts: 纯 (Simplicity)
I was reminded the words that I had penned for this artwork three years ago:
纯
脱下沉重的包袱 让一切回归原点 当心灵清醒之时 重新体验简单美
Simplicity
Taking away the heavy burden Let everything return back to it’s origin When the heart and soul awakens Re-experience the beauty of simplicity
I can’t remember exactly how I got that idea from, nor I remembered whether I understood what I’m actually writing and how I actually felt during that time. But I know it held a lot of significance to me during that period. Now, looking at the very same words, it really fits into what I’m actually feeling now: a very indescribable, subtle feeling that probably even I myself will not understand.
Flipping through my own LJ entries in the past, it seems that a lot of these …

Yay! Got the tablet running in both Windows and Linux! 😄
Now I’m having fun just do some random scribbles and experimenting how to make realistic digital paint effects :).
Randomly scribbled this:
And just thinking of having more organic lines to my artwork and web page designs are really making me excited! 😄
In other news, going to Port Dickson tomorrow! 😄
Portfolio: New Userpic
Here’s my updated userpic, since my old one has been used for like… 4~5 years (Ah~ I still remember those RPGamer board years).
It’s kinda like a hopeful wish… hopefully I can achieve that little goal… one step at a time.
Portfolio: New SD Self-Portrait
This is probably a representation of my own ideal self (for lack of a better term).
Still working towards that goal.
From Felix’s Eyes: Monochrome
“Unconcerned it seems, seemingly blending into the background with those watchful eyes.”
Portfolio: blue::brain
This is going to be the current design for blue::brain, which will be part of FelixLeong.com as a personal blog site:
(Note: The measurements are very approximated when I did this. And “Other Sides” is not a typo, because eventually this whole project will be called “Sides of Felix Leong” as a whole)
FelixLeong.com is really a big scale project to me as I’m not creating only one, but four different sites: PEDAGOGIES (my manga drawing and tutorial site), blue::brain (my blog), Tech Scribble (my programming and technical resource and tutorial site) and ParaGroove (my parapara site). Probably it’ll take me about 5 months to a year to actually complete them all.
That will be my current goal.
Through The Lens: The Flooding Red of Sundown
Well… Probably I don’t think I’ll keep up with the photo entrée concept at the point of time due to several reason, so I think I might add another category to fill in those scenes that I really liked when I manage to grab my camera ;).
Anyway, these are taken yesterday and it’s one of the rare occasions that the sundown covers the whole city in reddish hues, and I really find it lovely (well… although it DID gave me the creeps at the same time, no thanks to fiction XDDD). I was still feeling weak at the moment so these photographs are taken from places near my bed (I do wished that I can walk outside though).
“As if I saw the dying moments of the Phoenix, burning herself into ashes …

Just bought a new modem :), so that means that I’ll continue with my daily updates from now on :).
These few days (including today) isn’t getting too well, as I’m not feeling so well due to the fluctuating weather from hot to cold (extremely hot during shines, then extremely cold with heavy downpour) and lack of sleep during my exam preparations. But luckily my last paper is on next Tuesday, so I still have time to get myself recovered from it.
Just a recap, my combinatronics paper was pretty easy, but somehow the marks allocation for each question is extremely steep and I did quite some careless mistakes in my paper. I hope that I didn’t get anything less than a B because of that.
Then these few days has seen me …

PHEW! That’s a mouthful :p. (I mean the title)
Anyway, things have been pretty slow today, which is not really a good thing considering the fact that I only had that much time to revise for my exam.
I designed a poster for Dr Tay yesterday for the Computer Vision and Intelligent Systems (CVIS) Group. Basically this poster is going to be displayed during our university’s open day and my final year project will be presented there as well. 😊
Old Design
New Design
And yes I’m still experimenting with some simple vector arts in these :). And recently I have been spending time experimenting with new colours schemes, so this time round I fool around with contrasting colours (magic pink and earth green tones) and pastel like colours. I really like how the …
