I have done a thing.

I have printed a pile of business cards from moo.com. I don’t know what to call myself. I am not defined by my roles I currently tenure. I have been working in a charity job on Friday, at children theatre on Saturday and at a children home on Sunday, and I also volunteer for the…

Time flies! Este Macleod’s palette is inspired by Barbara Nissim. Not the style or colours that I normally would pick so it has been a bit of a challenge. Especially page two. I do like page one though, it’s a murmuration of Starlings that my sis-in-law and I witnessed after we went to watch the…

The 4th week of Colorcombo is inspired by Leon Spilliaert. On one hand I am glad I have done 4 weeks of journaling. It takes up a considerable amount of time. This week the colour is very cold and sad. It’s a fun thing to do but I am not sure if I really like…

I just can’t procrastinate any further. Now we have reached the end of the month and I still haven’t posted any updates. I am still finding my voice, the middle ground between being friendly and honest but refrain myself from oversharing. I don’t know I should write in English or Chinese, in written Chinese or…

First day of the year. This is the first time for a while I am alone in the house without my kiddies so I am going to write a quick post before they come back. It has been a very busy year for us. We have decided to move back to Darlington, put the house…

More than half a year has gone. Ya we moved from Scotland to Darlo. That alone kept me very busy last few months. I haven’t got a childminder and Juno isn’t in nursery yet. So I haven’t had time to update website etc. Apart from housework and baby duties, I have also been busy making…

I have been cutting down my time on instagram and Facebook. Deleted the apps and only check when there’s a couple specific things to look up. Am I happier? I don’t know, but the urge to post daily and check if anyone like or comment my posts are gone. Less likely to check on comments…

I have used my new ultramarine Rawlinsonend.com and the watercolour paint from artful watercolour box in these two drawings. This is how we normally go out. As we are living in a hilly area, and pushing the buggy uphill kills my shoulders, I usually only take my sling to go out with Juno. She loves…

The days are very long. Kids get up early and not able to go to sleep until 10. And the younger one hasn’t slept enough. She is grumpy all day, every day, until evening. All day I have been so busy I rarely have time to sit down. Yet I am insanely bored. Last night…

A little practice. Drawing from photo of son when he was 5 and the dog when it was still a pup. Lazy day, Juno’s nap was brief.
