Afternoon Pastime

A beautiful day captured by my camera. This picture was taken in 2007 and nothing was really special that day, I was just having a walk around the neighborhood only to have a relaxing time with the greenery.

For in the true nature of things, if we rightly consider, every green tree is far more glorious than if it were made of gold and silver. ~Martin Luther

There is always Music amongst the trees in the Garden, but our hearts must be very quiet to hear it. ~Minnie Aumonier

Walking in the sunset

"I'm a poor lonesome cowboy, and a long way from home... (Lucky Luke, as he rides off alone into the sunset)." That's the sentence I suddenly remembered after finishing this painting.The title of this painting is 'Walking in the sunset'. It's a digital art, actually a modification of my previous traditional painting 'sorrow'. I was trying to make story, more like a continuation of the previous painting.

Backyard blogging

During my vacation in my hometown Balikpapan, I got the chance to experience new blogging atmosphere. It's outdoor blogging right in my backyard. Since the wireless router was installed, I can blog just about anywhere within radius of 50 meters. It's quite peaceful out here.

DeviantART artists' support for Gaza

As if putting 1.5 million people at risk of starvation was not enough, Israel weighed some brutal attacks killing more than 300 people, with 750 + injured, including women and children. What is happening in Gaza is a tragedy, Palestinians in Gaza need help and they need the world's attention. Many artists on deviantART show their support for gaza by changing their ID avatars to Gaza avatars and by spreading the message for peace through their artworks. As artists, this is the best thing they can do for Gaza. Let's make the voice of the Gaza people to be heard all around the world. Thank you, in the name of the Palestinians of Gaza.
