Nature's Glory






My version of what nature may look like decades after 2012, d movie. A wilder looking place, no doubt, but maybe this is what its meant to be.

The building is part of the White House, miraculously standing though in ruins. You don't want to know what had happened to Mr President. The global tectonic shifts have caused clusters of bio-migration from one country to another, in search of energy and food. The whole of Washington DC was wiped out on the night of tsunami major.

Dreams



This is a digital painting entry for an international contest.
Below is the comment I made as interpretation of my work:

I see 'dreams' as floating islands, somewhere in between reality and heaven. 'Dreams' helps to soften the impact of life. It could be a place, or it could be a person.
It is created out of spontaneity whenever inspiration comes. It calls me out of myself. Though it is imperfect, it holds everything in tension between stark reality and ideals of Love.
I would actually place it just a shade below the grand idea of Love but it's enough for me.
It is still indescribable, it still inspires strong emotions; it is larger than words, whether spoken or written, that try to contain it. In other words, it cannot be defined.
My dream will include being for people in this world not having to go hungry again. Children too would not need to suffer or die from malnutrition or diseases.
I could move my dream a few notches closer to ground zero or I could pull it all the way until it vanishes into heaven.
My 'dreams' is a place I'd rather be than heaven itself.

Tree of Life



A very old tree but providing a useful canopy shield to the undergrowth.

Here's a Darwin inspired video on The Greatest Show on Earth and how life began here. Enjoy!

Rough Seas



I especially enjoyed painting d waves in this piece :-)

Lately, strong winds n rough seas have been hitting the region, causing boating n fishing on small boats to be really hazardous. It seems natural catastrophe has been making the news, including a series of strong earthquakes in Sumatera. Why is this happening all at the same time?

It is no small wonder that fish is scarce n expensive nowadays. Nobody wants to risk his life on turbulent ocean. I come from a family of fishermen (maternal side). Sometimes, even during such times, there's still a necessity to feed d family. My grandad used to go out fishing by himself, n the danger is that there will be no one to help him out if he fell off the boat. It didn't happen to him but it happened to my uncle - his body was later found a few days after the tragedy.
