The Journal : Flowers Edition

This is the book that I've made around November-December 2010 (can't remember), I make this book upon a request from my friend who want to give a special gift for her mother (thanks to Rizky Rahmayanti).

First thing I had in my mind when I remember about Mom, or Mother is one : FLOWER. So, I just get ready to research some flower illustration , and ta-daaa.. thanks to a print a day that have this beautiful illustration of flower, so that gimme an idea to draw some of them.
So, this is what i've draw and sketch.






Watercolor and pen on concorde paper


And maybe you wan't to know what the books like, but unfortunately, I'm kinda forget to capture the book in a proper way, so before I hand over the book to my friend, I've make a quick capture with my phone, that really have a limited quality. So, this is the book (sorry for bad picture) a simple one, with a big lace-ribbon in front of it.

Aye, Aye Cap'n!

Last weeks, I've made this lovely-cute-sailing book for my friend. (Thanks for Dwie Rahmatanti and Gina Havier for appreciating)
It's quite fun looking for all nautical thingy. And off course, I loved it.
I imagine sitting on the beach and write in the journal. And don't forget to add the sand or any shells that you find there and put them in this book. ;D

Okay, I'll stop blabbing, and show you the book. Enjoy!

The Journal : Memories Edition

It's kinda hectic this week. Feels tired and exhausted. Making this book is a little helper to raise my mood. I take this advice for my life now : "do what you feels like you do"

I'm just waiting my time to do that. Cause sometimes you can't do it for granted.
Yeah, still long way to-go, dear.. Be strong. ;)

This is the books..





tea and typewriter is so damn good together

some 'manual lining' using my favourite ink (and tea, too)

yes, I draw the line, manually
feels good when you done that with your heart :)

My brother's old collection
(He left it to me, and I give it to you, because I believe the memory won't run out)

and, again, my favourite
(yes, it's taken from first MOCCA'c cover album, lovely beautiful girl dancing with the fellowman ;))

ready to-go


cheers :)


Okay, what's for the next book?
Gotta update more.. ;D
