Drawing/Painting #1

Oh em gee. It’s a Sunday and my stomach is still unwell since Saturday because I ate too much on Friday from the fiesta. Hehe. I was planning to do some overtime work in the weekend but none of that happened because i got an excuse. And also, i left my laptop in the office and I didn’t bother to get it yesterday so that i could do some work. Instead, i started practicing drawing and painting again. I’m not sure if I’m going anywhere with this drawing and painting obsession because I am such a lazy person. I’m a master procrastinator and I’ll find every excuse not to draw and paint, even though I want to be good at it. I’m back at it again, and who knows for how long again. Maybe three days? Haha. Hopefully, I’ll have the patience, discipline and commitment to this important endeavor. Haha. So, here’s my drawing and painting of the day. 
Sorry, it looks kinda scary. The proportions are actually off. It’s nowhere near the reference photo. The nose and mouth are placed well below where they are supposed to be. I actually have this tendency, to draw the nose longer than it is. I don’t know why but I can’t eyeball it properly. But my goal for the day was to try to paint skin tone and I am kinda pleased that it turned out okay, i mean, it has some dimension? Right? Please agree with me. Hehe. But yeah, i just wanted to paint skin tone and hope that my painting would make sense somehow. Well, that’s it. 

Oh. By the way, I also did this drawing. It’s from a blog that suggested to try drawing this upside down reference. I drew this in 30 minutes and here is my flipped drawing. 

Again, it’s not that bad right? Haha

Sharing my Unionbank EasyCash Experience

    I’m very thankful that I stumbled upon UnionBank EasyCash. My family was needing money and we were ready to take out some loan. The problem was that there were so many requirements before our loan gets approved and one of the things that the bank needed us to do was open a checking account. Then, I remembered that my Citi Simplicity+ credit card was replaced by a UnionBank Visa Platinum Card. It was sent to me by mail just recently and I was given an Php 84,000.00 credit limit. I was thinking that I could maybe get a credit card cash advance. I registered my UnionBank credit card on the app and I saw this EasyCash service. I clicked the link and I was lead to this page, where you can input the amount you need and below it shows how much you are going to pay depending on the terms that you choose.       I decided to request Php 50,000.00 with a 24-month term because the monthly amortization of Php 2,328.33 is within my budget. I could have chosen 48 mont...

My Watercolor Painting Materials

I know and describe myself as someone who really wants to know many things which is partly the reason why this blog has been titled "Jack of Some Trades, Master of None". I claim that I know how to play the guitar and piano, I know how to speak Japanese, I love anime, I can sing, I can draw and I can paint. I'm not lying when I say those, but in some sense, I am novice in all of those.  I am a very good example of someone who is very enthusiastic in learning something at the beginning, but immediately loses interest after some time. I think I am again in the stage of being overly excited about learning something new and I can only hope that I finish what I started.  The new activity that I am excited to do is painting, particularly using watercolor. I've tried it before but I got stuck because I didn't have the resources to buy the right materials. When I had the money for it, I immediately went to the supply store and bought these: 1. Watercolor I bo...
