It has been almost a year since i last participated in Illustration Friday. The exact date was 17 October 2008. Pheww!! That long? Anyway, this week theme is "Flying". I am doing nothing fancy, just straight to the point illo - Here is mine "Flying : Princess Majeeha is having a flying time flying in the outer kingdom. Baby Boo loves flying with her too" Pen ink and colour pencils. Sorry about the quality, since i took the pix using normal handphone camera under bad lighting condition, hence, the result is so much noise. Nevertheless, i hope you enjoy my "Flying". Leave a comment will ya. Much Appreciated : D.




Speaking of Illustration, that brings me to The Contemporary Croatia Drawing which i attended its launch on last Friday. Aha! to those who may notice, this is another post related to Blog for FT. The exhibition is actually part of Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Croatia to present its culture to the world. There are 140 - Whoaho!! - interesting drawings by 70 visual artists being displayed. These works were selected by Croatia art historian and academician, Tonko Maroevic. Works are presented using different medium by artists of various generations, collectively are all about the broader scale of approach and technique, as well as the richness of artistic expression. Wow! i sound artistic using all these art and design language. : )

Contemporary Croatia Drawing is an extensive world tour which began in 2005. To date, it has been exhibited in 20 countries including Jordan, Eygpt, China, Hong Kong and a number of European countries. Main idea is to bring together cultures of participated countries. Surprisingly, Malaysia is the only South - East Asian nation selected to present this exhibition.

So, people of Kuala Lumpur, do come and visit the Contemporary Croatia Drawing exhibited in the Balai Seni Lukis Negara (National Art Gallery), Gallery 2A. The exhibition is from 9 - 31 October 2009. Well, without further a due, i present you pixs of the event ; )

The beautiful girlmore girls of Balai Seni Lukis Negara. The were being sporting striking a pose for a stranger equipped with only N82. Aha!

A creative display greets ya in entering the Balai Seni Lukis Negara. Awesome!! Ompph! I feel my creativtiy juice flowing amuck just looking at the display.

Few of many interesting works that you may find in the gallery. A quick glance, the middle work reminds me of Rafflesia.

I have always loved and being fascinated by eloborated and detailed visual arts. Such a feast to my eyes. Fuhh!! what a meticulous line work. This is a work by Renato Percan called Metamorphosis of the Body.

Two more works for your viewing pleasure. :D

Aha! Hey, you are in my picture :D Olla, if you happen to stumble this "picisan" blog, drop me a comment ya. While everybody was busing socializing, i was busy snapping here and there. Aha! Owh, if only i could afford a DSLR.

Aha, what is a socialite without "makan-makan" The food was great. Owh, if you are curious, the one smiling is actually my staff. Had to be there, by the order of Incik RestNrilekS. Aha.

There you have it. Hope you enjoy a glimpse of the Contemporary Croatia Drawing. Visit the National Art Gallery for a more profound art experience.

In the meantime, Happy blogging and have a great day.

    The arts on display agak abstrak ya. I'm not very good at translating these kind of art... lebih kepada yang senang difahami, mostly watercolor painting of landscapes and people's portraits :-D
