So apparently my pregnant post are not making hits, or feedbacks. LOL...its alright, just to cheer up the page, i thought i might as well post up 'something' else other than my pregnancy post. I've been wanting to paint again. To me, it has a therapeutic effect whenever i paint, which i find would be perfect for me right now since i need all the relaxation i need. I was going through all my old paintings, and i'm thinking of sharing some with my sisters and friends out there. I'm hoping to draw more to help me relax throughout this pregnancy, and i'm hoping to post it and share the progress as the pregnancy progress. Let's call it; "the pregnancy mandala project..."
So, as i was going through my old paintings, as i was saying, i found paintings from my first group show i did a couple of years back. Its called 'War of Hope' series, which potrayed a lot of irony & sarcasm. This is half of the drawings, and some of it have been sold and some were given to my closest friend for their support. Looking through this painting, i'm determine to start drawing again, insyaAllah...

this paintings was dedicated for the iraq war that was going on between the americans. Intentions was highlighted in a sarcasm, dark comical way to mirror the irony of the war itself. It was my first group show, which featured 8 of my artwork in a local gallery, in Central Market Kuala Lumpur. This show was in Dec 2007-Jan 2008.

I love those pictures and your art, it's beautiful, mashAllah. I'll enjoying seeing more.
I have been to Central Market! Wow, your paintings were there!?!?! That is so great!
Central Market is the first place I ever tried Rambutans =D
War of Hope. I really love how that sounds.
I like the first picture with the hijabi covering her face. To me that completely describes Iraq and everything going on in Palestine.
War of Hope, beautiful contradiction.
Thank you so much ladies for you always kind words. I'm deeply grateful for it. Thank you so much...InsyaAllah i'm hoping to get my hands to painting again upon every other things i'm hoping to do...
sarah, you tried rambutans? you like it? have you tried manggis? or mangosteen? i have a big tree in front of my house which is one of my favorite local fruit. And yes, CM is one of my favorite place to go, for all the eccentric and artsy culture side of KL. I like to see it like a small NY, kind of a melting pot.
Again, thank you so much for your kind words and support. :)
I love rambutan! I love Mangosteen also, they are my husband's favorite so he bought a big bag filled with them. I loved them so much I tried to bring them back to America with me, but they wouldn't let me :( :(
lol
I can't wait to go back and get my hands on all of the fresh fruits.
