Studio Friday: 7 ramdom facts/studio habits

." 7 random facts/ studio habits. For example:1. I cant begin my art until there is a a mug of hot coffee next to me and soft music playing in the background.2. I have a good luck charm in my desk drawer. (It is a the third vertebra of a monkey or whatever)It's just fun and some very unusual facts sometimes surface. We see lots oftagging but not studio oddities."- Robyn

I eat something before I start painting because I paint non-stop sometimes.

I have to make sure I 've been to the toilet or I will hold it until I finished.
I tie my hair at the back so I don’t feel heavy on my neck.
I start painting very early in the morning.
I cannot paint when there are people around me and they are noisy.
The only thing that can make me stop for some minutes is when I start having back pain and I will lie down on my bed nearby.

I keep my painting to myself for sometime before letting another soul see it.

on her fourth week

My new goddaughter Mari Angela. I hope I can see her soon.
A Baby is...A baby is cuddles and tickles on toes,the sweet scent of powder, a kiss on the nose!

A baby is Teddy bears, rattles, and pins,meals at midnight, giggles and grins.
"It's the little blessings that help us see just how lovely life can be."
"Reach for the stars and don't worry about falling - Mom and Dad will catch you!""You rose into my life like a promised sunrise, brightening my days with the light in your eyes."

stormy weather

Can you imagine the stormy weather in the month of November in my homeland the Philippines. Since how many years now since it started raining so hard on this month when it's less than a month before Christmas. Wherein every establishment and streets and houses and highways and gardens have been decorated beautifully already. What a pity. They say, the christmas spirit starts on the first day of September in the Philippines. Fun fun fun. December is the month I would wish to come home to visit and yet, it's like chaos especially with so many balikbayans-(filipinos going back to visit)and big boxes in the airport......but that's what makes it more exciting....Anyway, I'll just content myself by listening to filipino Christmas carols....la la la la la

handsome baby

I had a visitor this morning. His name is Linus and he is such a sweet baby. My winnie danced and sang when he saw him and they had a nice time playing(you might find it weird but I really talk about my only stuffed toy Winnie the Pooh as if he is real.....long story ). I took a picture to record that precious moment when they were enjoying each other's company, and when Linus started laughing. Awesome.

Winter Spring Summer or Fall

Kindly click the image to enLARGE. It’s my first time to join the Self Portrait challenge and I had a nice time taking pictures of myself wearing my favorite attire. I wanted to tell more about these clothes and something more about myself but, I am kind of restless right now because I am in the middle of something nowadays. Hopefully, in my next entry to SPC that I can tell more and I'd be able to visit the sites of the other members. The picture from the left is my favorite attire at home, especially during the summer or when it’s cold- I wear something warm on top. I’ve got 3 pieces of them with different designs but this one is my top fav. I like it because of the flower design and the color is so beautiful plus it is so comfy to wear. The fabric is so soft and I just wrap it around my body and tie it at the back of my neck. In the second picture, I use them to mix and match with my other clothes when I am going out. Ohh the third one is what I use when friends are visiting or we had to go out in the evening . I like this moss green crochet top and I mix and match it also with other clothes that goes well with my hat. In the fourth and fifth pictures are my all time favorite attire. I like jacket, sweaters with hood. I have them in different fabrics and colors like white, beige, red,moss green, blue and black. And during winter, what I like wearing underneath my winter jacket are elasthan turtle necks in different colors, too. I buy my clothes on sale usually at H & M.
