倫敦捉迷藏 / London hide-and-seek

There are too many wonderful things which have hidden in London's breezy summernight waiting for us to explore.

有太多有趣的事物藏在倫敦的夏夜裡，等著我們去發現！

享受自己吧！/ To indulge yourself !

關於記憶的創作即將進入尾聲

過程不斷反覆檢視自己，有很多質疑和問號

不過還是一點一點的成型了。

我也漸漸的開始喜歡這些高低起伏的過程。

就像老師們說的

" 享受自己吧 ！"

對現階段的我來說是件再重要不過的事了！

Time flies ...

It's about the time to move on to the next step of making book about memory.

I was quite struggling on developing the images in the beginning. 

Gladly, it's finally getting a bit smoothing in this stage.  

And I gradually start to enjoy those ups and downs of making projects.

As my tutor once said:

" To indulge yourself "

It's always important.

   

關於記憶 (練習之四) / About memory (experiment 4)

記憶中的悲傷

The sorrow, in memory. 

關於記憶 (練習之三) / About memory (experiment 3)

Once, I've had a stroll alongside the riverbank.

It was a clear blue Autumn day with cozy breeze.

"What a nice day!!"   

Therefore, I try to draw down the images of luminous river,and lovely houses by memory.

And this is what I experienced at that day !

有天沿著河岸散步，

秋天微涼的溫度伴隨著微風。

真是個好天氣阿！

所以，我試著在記憶中捕捉發光的河水，以及可愛的房子的形象。

並把它們畫下來。

這就是我所經歷的那天。

    

幻象 / Mirage

Somethings in life are like mirage, a bit surreal, but they are just way too astonishing.

某些事就像海市蜃樓一般，有點不真實，但是好美好美。

關於記憶 (練習之二) / About memory (experiment 2)

We all remember things that mean a lot to us.

我們都會記得對我們來說很重要的事物。 

綻放的 / Blooming

My mind is blooming, whilst I'm thinking.

The ideas flow out from my imaginary world and fly in the middle of air.

There are a boat, a chair, and a house

mountains, bubbles and what else ?!     

我的心在思考的那一瞬間綻放。

每一個想法順著思緒流瀉，在空氣中漂浮著。

帆船，椅子，房屋

群山，圓圈，還有什麼呢？！

涼涼的有月亮的夏夜 / A cozy breezy summernight with glittering moonlight

A wedding present for my wonderful sister who has a gracious and gentle heart !

She is the kind of person who always keeps a smile on her face !

Whenever I meet her, she always makes me feel like I'm walking under the moonlight, in a cozy breezy summernight.

warm, and comfy.

Send all of my blessing and love 

 Happy Wedding ! 

給一位有著一顆溫柔仁慈的心的姊姊的婚禮禮物！

她的臉上總是掛著笑容！

每次見到她的時候，她總是給我一種，好像走進一個溫涼，

有著不斷吹拂的微風，還有閃爍的月光的夏夜的感覺。

溫暖，自在。

獻上我所有的祝福和愛！

婚禮喜樂！

打翻墨水 / spilling ink

The night I spill a bottle of black ink ! it gathers in a valley and becomes a lake, glittering like a mirror.

Therefore, the reflection of stars, the moon, the sun all becomes the most striking decoration of the lake. 

夜晚打翻了黑色墨水！它溢滿了整個山谷，聚集成一座像鏡子一般的湖。
於是，天空的星星，屬於夜晚的月亮
以及等待白晝到來的太陽，便成爲湖面無聲的裝飾！

關於記憶 (練習) / about memory (experiemnt)

A exploring painting of my new picture book !

A story about memory.

我的夏天 / My summer

One of my dad's favorite potted plant was blooming while I was doing this painting.

Thus , I drew and drew...

 Trying to capture the beauty of that moment.

Trying record the most enchanting moment of my summer.

在畫這張畫的時候

老爸養的一株盆栽剛好綻放

於是，就這麼畫阿畫阿的同時

除了畫出最美的時刻

也順道紀錄了我的夏天。

星，月，太陽 / stars, moon, sun

Whenever I think about how eternal the stars, moon and sun are, everything that I'm concerning about suddenly turns so small.

so

    Do not worry.

當思緒在腦中翻攪，感受隨著事物更迭時

星，月，太陽仍舊永恆的杵在那裡

一想到這件事

很多事情也就不需要太過憂慮。

城市 / city

Draw an anonymous city for everyone and for myself....

" Where are you from ? " is one of the most common question that I've been asked over these few years, while I'm studying abroad.

I always tended to answer the question conscientiously, and proudly. 

Because, the country or city that we are from is not just a name on atlas, but also the identity of ourselves ! 

畫一個匿名的城市，給你，妳，你...

出國這幾年間，不斷會被人問及：你從哪裡來？

每每回答都會很認真，而且為此感到驕傲

我們所來自的國家，城市不單是個地理名詞

更是告訴他人我們是誰的記號！

城市進行中 / city under progress

Is doing new illustration recently~ it associates with cities that I loved ~ what does your dreaming city look like ?

最近在畫關於我喜歡的城市的總和，你心中的城市是怎麼樣子呢？

禱告 / pray

最近太多令人難過的衝突和意外在世界上發生 ... 台灣也是

禱告大家都平安，禱告這些事情遠去，不再發生 ...

There's too many conflicts and sorrows took place in the world, as well as my country...hope there's no more conflicts and sorrows, hope everyone will be safe and sound ... I pray ...

內心擔憂的獅子先生 / The worrying Lion

so he prays

大熊與女孩 /The big bear and the girl

宇宙 / Universe

I'm the kind of girl who tends to be very quiet and reserved in a group of people since I was little.

A typical introvert, I may say. 

However, I was a kind of girl who was so into doodling... and now, still do :) 

I remember in the early time of my childhood, the wall in our house was full of inks, lines, absurd shapes and so on. 

There was one day, mum gave me and my younger sisters a a box of water colour, several brushes , took us to bathroom and said : the wall is yours ! and left.

That was the first time that I got the permission to paint on wall freely! 

We even had a water fight afterwards when we were washing up the tiles of bathroom's wall  ! 

I feel so grateful to have mum, and dad who always support me and lead me to observe my own universe. 

從小就是一個內向的小孩，

不善言語，但是喜歡隨意塗鴉。

有天媽媽將一盒水彩，幾支筆交給我和妹，帶我們到浴室之後

帥氣的丟下一句：

“浴室的牆壁隨便你們怎麼畫都行！”便離開了。

然後浴室瓷磚在那個下午便被奇怪的圖騰和形狀佔領。

我就這樣一邊讚嘆著老媽的機智，

一邊感謝她和老爸給了我用畫筆創造一顆顆星球的機會

慢慢的畫到現在。

玻璃溫室 / A conservatory

A quick doodle of a glass house under the drizzling rain.

< 隨手畫 > 毛毛細雨下的玻璃溫室

Hey !

Hold on to whatever is important to you

no matter how hard it is 

~

持守重要的事物

不論如何

大熊風琴手 / The big bear accordionist

大熊風琴手總是喜歡在傍晚散步到森林的深處

乘著涼涼的晚風，拉著手風琴

聽著旋律在風中舞動

他呢喃到：

“今晚，又是一個美好的夜晚！”

The big bear accordionist always loves to take a stroll before the nightfall.

In the forest, he plays his accordion in the breeze.

Dancing with the music notes 

 Listening to the melody flow ...

he talks to himself:

" It must be a good night tonight !"

  

畫畫，還是畫畫! / painting painting and still painting !

Painting with gouache and colouring pencil again !!

here's my experiment of drawing people ~~ 

still haven't decided the colour of the mug as well as the pattern on her shirt  ...

I'm so in love with painting the botanical garden on the background. 

perhaps, I was born to be a plantaholic ?! 

Well ... dunno :P

再次用不透明水彩色鉛筆畫圖！

以上是目前的人物練習

仍然還未決定馬克杯的顏色以及女孩衣服上的圖案

在畫背景的植物群時非常享受那個當下

或許，我生來就是植物控？！

哈，誰知道呢 :P

   

勇氣 / The courage

The courage will lead you to places where you've never seen before.

勇氣會帶著你到你所未見之地。  

航向最遙遠的馬戲團 / Sailing to the remotest circus

We are sailing to the remotest circus. 

There's nothing more, but a plenty of joy. 

Enjoy this voyage my friend ~

深夜疾行 / Night safari

Hooray  !! Let's go on safari at night !

Do not be afraid of being alone my dear, 
cos you have twinkling stars, and blooming cactus be with you ~ 

So, trust me ~ you are not alone :)

歐耶！我們正深夜疾行在荒原中！

但是不要害怕孤寂親愛的，
因為我們有閃爍的星子，以及綻放的仙人掌花為伴～

所以，相信我～你不孤單:)

深夜疾行～進行中 / Night safari ~ under process

addicted in drawing cactus and desert :P

畫仙人掌及沙漠畫得好過癮 :P

Here is a part of the drawing ~~

the rest of it is still under process !

深夜疾行的局部～

仍然在繼續加油中！

I'm also trying to apply gouache, which is one of the medium that I'm not familiar with in the drawing.  

The outcome is not as bad as I supposed, but still need a lot more practices～   

這次我嘗試用不透明水彩來描繪，但是實在是有點跟她不熟

目前結果並沒有想像中的壞，但是我仍須要更多的練習才行～   

love the colour palette of this drawing !!

大推這次的色票!!

未來計畫 / Future plan

There's one time me and some friends were talking about what we up to do in the future ~

Some of us were looking forwards to become children's book illustrators, some of us were dreaming to have their own art craft shop... or maybe a gallery cafe' ?!

for me... I think, to be a flower shop owner might be one of the best future careers for me :)

曾經和朋友討論起未來的計畫～

有些人想成為繪本畫家，有些朋友則夢想著開一間手作藝品店，或者藝廊咖啡館?!

我想，成為一個花店老闆或許會是個很好的職涯規劃 :)   

    

夏天快樂 / Happy summer

Happy summer ! 

Let's enjoying an afternoon tea with a bunch of friends in such a cozy breezy weather !

Lady Cloud

Lady cloud , where have you been ?

a handmade card for my dearest friend

A handmade farewell card for my friend who is leaving soon !

That was my first time to use collage to make a card ~~

It was fun, but in the other hand I was feeling a bit of sentimental ~

hope we will see each other soon in the short future my friend !! 

我的名字叫甜甜 / Tian-Tian

It's a picture book that associated with issue of death and illness.

The story was originally from my family as well.

Tian-Tian was the only word that my granny could speak, before she passed away.

Therefore, these two little words became quite meaningful to my family. It represented the sadness, happiness,

bitterness and every emotion that my granny would like to express. 

By this book, I would like to deliver a concept to its readers.

"Even though death always tears our heart apart, the love never fails."

這是一本關於死亡及疾病議題的繪本。

謹獻給我的家人。

甜甜，是我外婆過世前唯一能說的兩個字。

外婆用這個平凡的名詞訴說著她所有的情緒，悲傷，幸福，痛苦，所有所有。

在創作此本繪本時，有一個想法很想要傳達給它的讀者：

“面對死亡，我們總是心碎的 ; 但是死亡背後留下的愛卻是永恆的。”
