When I was in grade school and high school, I can replicate drawings rather passably (for school projects). Pero I can’t make one out of scratch. Totally lack imagination, hehe. Now I don’t think I can even make a doodle. Hay, buti ka pa, you have time na for these things.

I’m in my best element when it’s raining…as long as I’m inside the house. Why did you not post your sketch? Sometimes, we are our own worst critic.

just bloghoping! but u got a nice sketch back there..

I love rainy season. The only time I can cover up my well sculpted body. hehehe

Dude, I’d like to see some of your drawings? Post them.

nice to know i’m not the only one who feels alive when it’s raining . as for my artistic ‘pretensions,’ i’m more comfortable with charcoal and watercolor. it’s been some time since i used these media though so i’m terribly rusty… the kindest description for my work would be “basically an eyesore.”

maybe when i can produce something that won’t embarrass me too much i’ll post it here. for now i will spare you the pain of trying to come up with a diplomatic way to describe my work

qimadra, i wish i could claim this artwork as mine but the thing is it’s not. i just swiped this from the net because it complimented my topic — rainy, gloomy, yet luminous

i’ve given up drawing a looong time ago, after my school sent me to a district art competition only to realize i’m the worst kid in the whole town. hehe.

but then i had one weird period when i was in high school. for two full weeks i was able to replicate all the looney characters in great detail. i truly think i did a good job that up until now those sketches remain in my closet. but the artistic mood lasted really short. haha

don’t worry, i guess you’re still a better artist than me.

i want to see the drawing!

I’m sure you have good if not great drawings that you’re hiding from us.. I want to see your drawings too.

rain drops evoke a sentimental train of thought. it’s the artist’s world coming into full form. ay naku, nagiging poetic tuloy ako. hm… sana post mo din ung doodles na yan.

@alia, i guess we all have our moments. according to my my sister, i have the artistic temperament but not the talent *ouch*

to daisy, kai and badoodles, sorry guys i already tore it up. i couldn’t bear to look at it. i’m working on something else though… maybe as soon as i get the nerve i’ll post it (when no one’s looking). thanks for taking notice though

I had read the book (Bourne Supremacy and Ultimatum,loved them both) but still doesnt have the courage to watch the movie,afraid to be disappointed.As you said there was never a mention about Carlos,so who was the villain.please dont say it was Colkin.

hi dhey, thanks for dropping by.

it’s been years since i had read all 3 bourne books (identity, supremacy, ultimatum) so i can no longer recall the names of the bad guys. in the film, the bad guys are this Intelligence bureaucrat and his slimy pals who are trying to cover their collective asses (they wanted to bury the Blackfriars program because of its explosive nature), which means that they had to wipe out David Webb — aka Bourne.

although the movie has its exciting moments, IMO it lacks the the heart-pounding urgency and life-and-death thrills of Ludlum’s books. they did not even bother with marie st jacques (who’s supposed to be alive!) and added characters who were not even in the books. i guess they just wanted the movies to feel up-to-date because the days when Carlos the Jackal’s name struck terror among his intended targets are long gone. a pity, really

i beg to disagree..

it’s quite a cool work, i must say

not bad at all onyxx, but i know you could do better than that. san na yng charcoal portrait that you promised to do decades ago?

heheh, ginagawa pa yung charcoal pencil na pang-drawing ko
