My First Oil Painting In a Long, Long Time
Before I went on a long vacation (well, I don’t do the weekend thing, so this was my first vacation in 2022) I deviated a little bit from my iPad and worked on an oil painting. It was something new to me and I’ll tell you more about this painting today.

I seem to only be doing things lately that I have forgotten how to find the words for them. Since I couldn’t articulate it thoroughly when I was asked about this work a few days ago, I would like to write a little about it. It’s possible that I was only exhausted that day from working on my physical painting that my mind was floating I couldn’t find the perfect words to say.
Sapios
Sapios is one of the characters of my art, which emerged in my works back in 2015. She is an ethereal being, a fairy or an alien, and human in one. Her existence feels that everything is pleasant and ideal.
Recent Museum Visit
It feels as if we’re back to the year 2020, now that the country is on strict quarantine again with a crazy curfew that’s quite a challenge to adjust around with (since I got used to the daily walks toward night time) Anyway, here’s my visit to the Museum of Contemporary Art and Design several weeks ago, glad I was able to before the lock down!

Walking in a huge space, looking at art. This time around however, my friend, Bibi was discussing details about every series, some I was able to guess, and some quite surprised me. See you soon!
New Artwork: “Way Through”
I intended to finish this piece in full black and white, yet I became weary of seeing neutral shades and monochrome, it’s almost sad. Energetic tones consistently do sorcery to white or gray walls. Not a lie. Plus, it’s the Christmas season and however the pandemic limitations are going to go crazy again because of the occasion surge, there’s still countless reasons to be merry. I, for one, am guilty about feeling happy everytime I see that my fave goods are back in stock in the supermarket. (Sounds funny) Yeah, you’re not alone- the supermarket has surely become a sanctuary of delight this year! Most bars and some restaurants have shut and the grocery stores turned into the hottest spots in town. I used to just float through and pick important stuff- now I actually, truly see each thing in their actual shapes and colors. I think if this artwork strums its lyrics- I may have just uncovered it.…
