Surprise in the morning.

I woke up this morning and doing my routines; checking email, look at my twitter's timeline, and bla bla bla. Then i remember about exhibition room in Coldplay official website. I submitted my painting about two weeks ago. Here's their rule, they pick one piece of art in every weekday. I'm hoping they would pick mine to go up on their homepage, but you know, everyone all over the world submitted their piece also, and i believe they much more talented or artful or skillful than me. So i'd forget about this. But when i go to Coldplay website this morning.. Surprise! I found mine on their homepage! It's 21.04.10 exhibit! Even they just will put it for few days, i'm super happy since i'm a huge fan of them. 

Anyway, i'd like to say thank you so much to the man in my painting. I'm not gonna tell much about that painting here, but one thing, i don't do painting unless the object has a meaning in my life. :)

Geisha*

Killing time and suddenly have an idea to create something about geisha. Actually, it's not suddenly, i was thinking it will be great if i live in Japan. Then i'm thinking about Japan, sakura, sushi, kimono, Hokusai, great wave of Kanagawa, and.... geisha at the end.

Already posted for this one actually, but in different title, color, tone, background, and this one isn't flipped vertically (see my previous post Flip the world vertical). I'm kinda like this B/W version, so i'd like to share it. 

Hi, my name is Popolo!

This is Popolo.

Popolo is one of my monster i created yesterday. 02.00 AM - 02.05 AM in a paper, and 02.05 AM - 02.16 AM in photoshop for coloring him. So practically, he was born at 02.16 AM. Anyway, i have a hobby, create monster character. To create a monster, we don't give a shit to the shape, the proportion, the hand, the feet, or the balancing of left and right side. And it was a very long time ago when i wanna be a Mangaka. I was a total Manga lover years ago (well, i was a loyal buyer for Animonster Magazine anyway). But somehow, i forget about that Mangaka dream.

Back to Popolo. 

Why i named him Popolo, it sounds funny when you say a name with some similar vocals. O, o, and o. Popolo is a four years monster with a light green color over his body. His ears is at the top of his head. He has a unbalance-growth-disorder with his body part. That's why his left ear is longer than the right one. Popolo also having unability to express his feeling. Whatever feeling inside, he always has that big grin face. Even when he's crying! Popolo doesn't have feet, but he has a ROLLER FEET! Like a roller blade, Popolo has some rollers to moving on. But, because of that roller placed in par of his body, he just could move to the left or the right (like a crab, eh?). Popolo really loves a chocolate fudge ice cream and all kind of foods made from tuna. Popolo has an obsession to become a Superman, he's lying to everyone that he's a real Clark Kent, but who would believe him anyway?

I see the sunlight 

I see the rain

I feel the river flow like it's running through my veins
there is a fire it's burning
and I feel it's pain
there's a storm alive in the sky tonight
and we won't ever be the same
there's nowhere left to hide
your face
it's making a move for every place

Tonight we'll leave
I guess that's how it's gotta be
and the world, the world comes tumbling down
and I wish I could stay
but I know it will never be that way
and the world, the world comes tumbling down
the world comes tumbling down

I can't believe it
you'll never stay
but it's now too long and some got fall
but now there's nothing left to say
who makes the reasons
who tells us why
but if you would heard about you shout it out
I wish you leave me here to die
there's nowhere left to hide
your face
it's making a move forever if it ends
