Salvaging an old discarded work.

Salvaging an old discarded work.

Another small #Moleskine painting to pass the time in Calayo. I bumped my toe to a door so part of the nail broke. Nurse Aleyn @wallposterstar told me to avoid salt water muna so I spent the 1st afternoon painting. πŸ˜₯ I still swam and kayaked the next day. πŸ˜†

I’d like to dedicate this to my friend Irene who is the #1 vegetable hater in the world. :))

Now back to doing commissions. :o

I’m opening watercolor workshops for the summer here in Ortigas, Metro Manila, Philippines!

In addition to the Basic 4-hour class that I have been giving in the past year, I also opened a 6-session watercolor class for the dedicated learner. Students will be taught how to paint from reference, from life and by freehand, both realistically and stylistically. Unlike the intensive 4-hour class, each student will be given ample attention and guidance to maximize his/her learning experience. Each student gets to take home a watercolor and paintbrush set (plus a cold press pad and drawing materials for the 6-session attendee).

For inquiries and to claim an application form, just email me at chua.valerie@gmail.com.

There a 6-pc card set here at @heimastore with my work in it also with Soleil Ignacio, Fozzy Castro-Dayrit, Arlene Sy, idKids and Heima. 😊 The print is lovely!

I’m not yet done… Took a long break to play Line Play. I feel so guilty. ;_; My name in the game is Ann Ann (blue dress with green leaf on the head). You can add me up and give me a heart or something. *u*
The work is tiny, around 5x7” only. 😢 I’m still too afraid to go big. I think Instagram is the greatest thing at the moment. I get to update my tumblr often. Yey!
