Bouncing Out?

Where's the "Welcome Back" banner here?

Sa totoo lang, hindi ko gaano na miss ang sarili kong blog.  I was, in fact, trying to find 101 reasons to bounce out this site.  I made a list of it but only ended up with 79.  Pffft...  If my blog was a real baby, it would be dead and rotting by now, reeking with kick-ass worms.  Yes, I really really really am a bad blog-parent.  Shoot me.

Cracked a few books, and comic books, and did new paintings, during my almost-permanent internet hiatus.  Read three series of Neil Gaiman's The Sandman, Budjett Tan's Trese 1 & 2, Gerry Alanguilan's Elmer, Stephen King's The Gunslinger, Chuck Palahniuk's Rant, Haruki Murakami's Kafka on the Shore, and WM Paul Young's The Shack.  These are just some of the books I added recently to my small collection  of books.

What have I been doing?  Work and work!  I barely had the chance to do some artwork in the past  months.  Takte kasing trabaho yan eh!  I'm not whining.  Sa totoo lang maganda nga na may trabaho ako na may disenteng sweldo at libreng tinapa.  Yun lang, taena lang talaga yung kumpanya at mga boss ko, panay ang pa-overtime!  This may sound redundant and downright uninteresting so I'm stopping now.

Anyway, here are some of my new paintings...


"Untitled" Acrylic on 24 x 18 inch canvas
I made this back in March, but decided to put a darker shade on it.
(yes, a schlock version of Angels by Raphael)

"Outside" Acrylic on 16 x12 inch canvas

"Rusted"  Acrylic on 20 x 24 inch canvas

The photos above were taken using a 3.2mp phone camera, so they're not really of good quality (just saying they look better in actual, hahaha!).  All these are just sitting in one corner of my room, collecting roach-dirt and dust.  Walang mapaglagyan sa bahay eh.  Gusto nyo ba? :)

This is it for now.  Wala lang.  Pumampam lang ngayong araw.

Byerts!

hello, ang galing naman ng mga pinta mo. :)) nakita ko lang ang blog mo kasi isa ka sa dalawang nag-join sa site ng elmer, napadpad kasi ako dun dahil nalungkot ako kasi hindi ako nakabili at nakapagpapirma kay gerry a ng elmer. Super back-read ng posts mo (sa office!!!) nakakatuwa ang iyong blog. Naku, ang haba na ng comment ko, sori naman, kaaliw kasi.
