Hello! My blog’s contest courtesy of Avalon.ph is still running. It will close on January 14. So you can still join, if you haven’t yet. :) Aside from winning a Fashionary notebook, 1 randomly picked winner can get a chance to win a custom drawing from me. *nervous* I hope I do well. ;^;

Thanks Ivy! The room I used to have is with my sister now. I migrated to a run down guest room. The comforter and the curtains are severely ripped. Right now it’s in its least presentable state. I promise to find time to renovate and fix, and I promise to share photos when it’s done. :)
Words like yours really motivate me to work and try harder so it’s definitely not tiring to hear! It’s really touching and whenever I feel bad about myself, it reminds me that there are people who believe in me.
I’d like to say to everyone, thank you! Everyone feels terrible about their work once in a while (or even in lengthy streaks). Please don’t give up! Just keep working. There are bad days, but definitely, there will be good days. And always remember that there will always be someone somewhere who likes the things you do, and there is someone (a friend, a stranger) who is rooting for you, I think that’s enough reason to believe in yourself. Work to make yourself happy. :)
Hi! Thank you so much for the kind words! I use a 0.5 mechanical pencil for doing tighter outlines. I buy either Rotring or DONG-A lead. I think these are the 2 most common pencil lead brands available in Bookstores/Supplies stores here. For pencil rendering, I switch between 2b or 5b Staedtler or Faber Castel. I’m not greatly familiar with graphite mediums so I’m not sure how apparent the difference is between pencil brands. That’s about it. Thanks! :)
UPDATE: The Woman with the Ivory Cameo Solved!
Last week’s case involving the mysterious death of a young woman, found in her home clutching an ivory cameo, has now been put to rest. According to the latest reports, the necklace was purchased by the deceased’s lover from Tuxessories.net and sent to her home in a box laced with a heretofore unidentified poison. Police officials have refused to divulge any more, though a disgruntled civilian on the scene had this to say on the matter: ‘Dull.’
THIS. Is the best accessory ad ever. EVERRR.
Quiet Girl ft. Avalon.ph Fashionary x Sibling Giveaway
A few months ago, Avalon.ph lent my sister and I copies of the Fashionary to draw on. You can read about our experience here. It’s a great item for fashion and clothing enthusiasts, professional fashion designers and hobbyists. Much to my surprise, Avalon.ph sent me a LIMITED EDITION item: the Fashionary x Sibling - iPad Pouch Limited Boxset. There are only 400 (FOUR HUNDRED!!!) boxes of these around the world and we’re giving you a chance to own one!
***The Fashionary x Sibling box set can only be shipped to Philippine residents only. Package is too expensive to ship abroad. :(***
