In support of HK brands (not Brand HK)

Finally had a chance to visit the Design Gallery for leisure.  I was determined to get something before I even went close.

Another 10 hours of effort

I have to say this is much better than the mouth at the beginning.

Two steps forward

The 2nd class should be a ball, but the teacher added an apple as well. (This one has some "retouching" from the teacher though. I still don't know how to blend the colours together.)

Doublespeak

新盛世主義的十項國策獻言:

* 一黨領導的民主專政

* 穩定第一的依法治國

* 執政為民的威權政府

* 國家調控的市埸經濟

* 央企主導的公平競爭

* 中國特色的科學發展

* 以我為主的和諧外交

* 單民族主權的多族群共和

* 後西方後普世的主體思想

* 中華文明舉世無雙的民族復興

美術之正宗

豐子愷說,習畫要先學素描,畫好素描之後再學油畫,此乃美術之正宗,其他如粉彩或水彩都只是旁門。















Back to square one -- I started oil painting class after CNY. Everything has to start all over again.

Nice weekend

Going to galleries, shopping, reading, watching TV ... well, a little bit of work too ... What a nice way to spend my time.

Will start oil painting classes on Wednesday, a two-solid-day workshop on arts for disabled over the next weekend, long working days expected for the next two weeks at least.

Tough time ahead.

Oh...

... I marked the wrong date on the picture.

《麥兜.在濕地上》

It's especially meaningful with the animal students and Miss Chan say together "We will protect our wetland. We will protect our home." Mother nature belongs to everyone, not just human.

Not very successful either

消失

可能近來多讀歷史書,有點覺得我城地標逐一消失,比所謂「借來的城市」時更加無根。未能立足過去與現在,又怎可能有未來?

Another pot of flowers

The real thing looks quite different.

I don't really like doing sketches

20100116 反高鐵‧這麼「和諧」的片段不會在新聞內看得到

這麼「和諧」的片段,應該不會在新聞內看得到,因為傳媒喜愛「衝 突」、「衝擊」。 有時傳媒所報導的「衝突」,我看到的只是記者為了搶新聞的推撞。

Couple of recent drawings

無乜心機

Something needs to be recorded

興建高鐵 = 促進香港經濟發展?

我還是弄不明白,究竟興建高鐵是如何促進香港經濟發展。我看到的,是興建高鐵讓香港人認命,接受香港優勢不再,於是我們要興建高鐵,讓商賈可以「更快」地返回內地投資、巡視業務;於是我們要興建高鐵,讓專業人士可以一小時內到內地上班,晚上再用短於一小時的時間返回香港睡覺。當這些(稍為)富有的人都不在香港,香港的基層市民又如何就業呢?還是要北上當廉價勞工?

香港的經濟發展模式,總是讓富有的更富有,貧窮的更貧窮。

我想我是成長於「大香港精神」的年代,我總覺得香港每進一步融入內地,便進一步邁向消失。

This is not my nose

Finally grasped some basis of pencil drawing. The nose is absolutely better than the mouth.

《人民之歌》

每次遊行集會唱《人民之歌》,我都覺得無奈──為甚麼我們現在仍要唱「看吧!人民在挽手,爭取正義和自由」?

歷史巨輪

最近在看幾本叫《圖解世界史》的書。

基本上,當教育程度提高了,人民不需再為基本生活擔憂了,甚至有些人小富起來了,這批中層/中產便會希望參與公共事務/社會決策。當他們發現原來權力掌握在一小部份人手上時,衝突便會發生。無論是十八、九世紀歐洲各國的內戰/革命/改革,或者各個殖民地的獨立抗爭/起義/戰爭,都走不出這個規律。


歷史巨輪浩浩蕩蕩,誰也躲不了。
