November morning practices: Birds I want to carry November morning practices: Birds
I want to carry the Inktober spirit to November, therefore I picked birds as a topic to draw 30 days continuously.

It wasn’t as easy this time around. The beginning was of course not much struggle. But the last few days I was losing interest and also got sick. I was pushing through at the end. 

Overall, I enjoyed this challenge I gave myself. I have tried different approaches to draw birds and learned quite a bit from them.🥰🥰🥰

November urban sketching is with the rehearsal of @staatsphilharmonie 

Such an amazing and immersive experience to sketch with wonderful live music. I had to put down my pen many times to listen and enjoy their music. My body swayed along with the music while I was sketching.

Thank you very much, @uskmannheim and @staatsphilharmonie !!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Some of the sketches will be exhibited at Rosengarten Mannheim, along with the Music Concert this Saturday!

I have been eyeing this “Art creation by Talens” sketchbook for quite some time. The cover is so beautiful and the paper inside is white instead of cream color!

There were not many reviews on the white paper version. Those I have found are pretty diverse, some said they are the same, some said they are totally different. I think I can only try for myself.

For ink, I think they are pretty similar. I feel like the white paper can take a little bit more ink than the cream one, just slightly. But for watercolor, sadly colors became so dull and greyish.🥹🥹🥹 For Gouache, it is as usual, perform nicely on different surfaces. The dye-based Koh-i-Noor Anilinky brilliant watercolor has no problem at all.

The white paper doesn’t take as much water as the cream one. First light wash is ok, color turns dull after drying. If your brush touches it the second time, it starts to show signs of peeling. And this is just color swatches, I haven’t paint yet.

Let’s see how it goes when I start to paint in the future. Maybe it will be better(or not😂😂😂).

Those Kaki trees are beautiful!  Apparently my raccoon side of me is suppressed by the arty side of me. I draw them instead of trying to eat them.🤣🤣🤣

Carry on with the inktober spirit, I am trying to focus on birds this month.
I started the first day on a cheap sketchbook, but I forgot the paper inside doesn’t take watercolor at all. So I went back to a better sketchbook. Therefore I had 2 pages for day 1!🙈🙈🙈

Lord Ganesha

Tiney, January 28, 2015May 26, 2023

I did a painting of Lord Ganesha in Dec 2014!

I started learning Bharatanatyam from June 2013. Time flied so fast, it is already 1 year and 8 months! I performed a little dance to Lord Ganesha in the recital in Dec 2014.

My first dance 🙂

Ganapathi
Sri Vakratunda Mahaakaaya
Gorbi Surya Sama Prabha
Nirvighnam Kuru me Deva
Sarvakaar yeshu Sarvadaa

Translation of the Mantra
Vakratunda – Curved trunk
Mahakaya – Huge form
Surya – Sun
Koti – Billion
Sama – Equal
Prabha – Splendor
Nirvighnam – No obstacles
Kurume – Give me
Deva – God
Sarva – All
Kaaryeshu – Endeavours
Sarvada – Always
O Lord Ganesha of the curved trunk and massive body, the one whose splendor is equal to millions of Suns, please bless me to that I do not face any obstacles in my endeavors.
