A few 'marks' of 2009, 'memo' blogging of 2010

First official blog post:
It's not as easy as it is to read others' blogs.
However, there are a list of objectives I'd like to achieve through the use of my blog 'Marks and Memos'.
Besides having this act as a platform to display the progress of my academic and personal work, it will also be used to share observations - 'marks' people make consciously and unconsciously on the canvas of our world.

These observations include:
-compositions within a frame from a selected point of view
-works of artists that inspire me
-colour schemes
-shape, scale, and textures of garments/objects
-full look of outfits and details (globalization v. culture/personalization)

Alongside the 'marks' will be accompanied with 'memos' (short and sweet) to remind me of what makes it worth noting.

A year has passed.

Looking back at previous marks made on blank sheets bring about giggles and sighs.

The passion and naive compositions of that time not too long ago.


My Illustration Project based on Derek Lam's Fall 2009 Collection:
-predict possible mood board
-create a possible title for collection
-illustrate fabric of garments
-attempt flat constructions

...Now all I see are the changes I'd like to make.
