Shooting Star

This image was done on black watercolor paper with pastels.

I drew this image to test out what pastels can do. I found that pastels are quite messy and hard to control. I heard of a trick to work with pastels that help control them, if your place baby powder around the places you do not want the pastels to go then it will help keep them in the area you want.

This is an image of a shooting star. I drew this because the night before I saw a meteor shower. This was what I think a meteor to look like.

My Design Philosophy

I see design as a way to solve problems in a different, innovate of way. The solution to problems in the built environment are not something that can be solved through conventional ways, it takes critical thinking, a keen eye for details and an oddball thinker. There is an art to solving problems and I believe that sometimes, answers are not right in front of us,the right answers are felt but cannot be understood, it is an answer that is abstract, we can not perceive it but yet we understand it in our subconscious. Nature has solved most of our problems, I believe that we just have to see things as nature does, abstractly, with the usage of colors, textures, spatial orientations and new ways of thinking.
