ASMARADANA

What wonders could we possibly ask for, when everything is already given to us..

ASMARADANA

Love is something that is born from the soul.

Piercing the lonely doubtful heart.

The seasons change but identity and likeness doesn't.

I won't be artsy fartsy with words. Tonight is just simply tiring. Did my laundry, my assignment and such. Papa's in jakarta. Golfing with friends. Syakirah's done with her end of the year concert.

Wow! It's been two months?? Syeesh. That was FAST! Didn't even feel like it. To think i've went through loads these two months. It made me think, whether the three years im gonna be in birm is gonna feel much in heart and mind?

Anyway, am in love with the Asmaradana remix song. The dance and choreography theme is really just plain beautiful!

Hmm anyway, thursday and friday is coming up! Anxious and Nervous still.

Anywho, it's Ashlynn's birthday today. Happy birthday!

This artwork i've posted here is for my friday final presentation for Introduction to Graphic Design. I've been working on it for 3 weeks. The process of finding this simple yet effective(not sure yet!) took me that long. The length is not of importance to me. But the process of doing, understanding and of learning from it. If you're gonna spend three freaking years on a project. Get a great piece of work. BUT learned nothing from it, then why bother. ;)

Anyway the breakdown of the artwork would be;

i made the puppet to resemble..a puppet? US! which doesnt have any features. well not much anyways. cause i didnt want to be specific.

i made the strings look like it's hanging and some of them wildly about. And made it look like it's gonna cut loose. And i wrote certain inscriptions in the strings to give the audience a little info about what the poster and THESITE.ORG is about.

Oh by the way do visit www.thesite.org fabulous site. But the layout of the site? wooh. unbelievable. too colourful innit? hehe

The colour, well striking! Contrasting! Effective is the word that comes to mind. haha

SO yeah, do comment and critique. But PLEASE do wait till friday. hehe im kinda...well like i said.. Nervous. Haha

Yes yes. The winds of autumn are blowing around. Ahhh..Chill yes. BUT. Im falling sick as it is. Crapness. Anyway took some panadols and Cirrus's. Hope it helps. InsyaAllah.

Got to know Nenek in Jakarta isn't well. I've been praying for her best health. Hope Allah will dispose of her sins and lightens her burdens. :) People might not know this, nor even my family members, she's quite the closest person to me. When we meet, i won't want to be parted from her. She's an arrogant person i tell u. haha but yes. She's my nenek. Nenek gue!! ahhaha yes yes. Im also indonesian. woops! hahhaha

So yeah, hope all is alright. Anyway mark making and drawing strategies is on thursday. Have to pass up the RVJ and get my marks the week after. Im starting two new modules in two weeks. COMPOSITION AND BALANCE PRINCIPLES with Bal Nandra and IMAGE AS TEXT,TEXT AS IMAGE(typography and fonts) with David Osbaldestein. Omg.. I spelt his name right. i think? hehe

Anyway looking forward to those. Alright then. Gonna go to bed now!

Salam

Hilmi
