Bersih

Bersih

Aku takde kat tempat kejadian, kat Malaysia mahu pon Adelaide. Niat di hati memang nak pegi yang kat Adelaide, tapi bukan sebab nak demo, hanya memenuhi jemputan sorang membe gua, pegi, ckp hai, belah. Tapi tak sempat sbb gua byk esement *tipikal alasan, haha*

Aku takley nak kater pape, sbb aku tak pegi, and aku tak nmpk pape melainkan video-video,post,gambar-gambar bersama caption2 yg entah betol entah tidak.

Pertama sekali, logik lah kalu aku mengaku yang aku nak keadilan tertegak di muka bumi, wlupon byk bende aku buat slame ni, tak adil pon. haha. Aku tidak menyokong perlantikkan pemimpin berdasarkan undi, tapi perlantikkan pemimpin haruslah melalui mesyuarat, perbincangan, siapa yg layak jadi pemimpin, setelah itu, jika perlu, barulah masuk fasa pengundian. So, clean election??? hhhmmmmm, aku sokong clean, just election tu aku tak berape minat. hahaha. Ada pon sistem perlantikan pemimpin adalah satu topik yg panjang lebar untuk dibincangkan, dan aku bukan org yg layak untuk cakap pasal hal ni.

Tapi, apa yang jelas bagi aku, semua pihak dok bantai sama bantai. Bila A ade salah, B bantai. B ada salah, A bantai. C ade salah, A ngn B bantai. D ade salah, tiba2 takda org bantai, E salah, suma org bantai. Dok hang bantai aku, aku bantai hang, sampai bila tak sudah.

Dengan ini aku menasihati diri sendiri, juga yg lain, *jujur nya, aku nak nasihat org laen je, saje nak tunjok bagos* , bila kiter buat statement, bila kiter bendiri bercakap, please do it to favor the truth, please do it to favor the right thing, not to favor your people, your government, your party, or anything else.

Setiap persatuan akan ada kelemahan, kerana ia dipelopori oleh sesuatu yang bergelar MANUSIA. Mana mungkin suatu parti, jika ia benar, ia tidak mungkin melalukan kesalahan. At some point akan ade salah. Mana mungkin kerajaan, jika ia zalim, ia tidak pernah melakukan kebaikan.

Point aku, sudah2 la bantai sane, bantai sini, tembak org tu, tembak org ni. Ade salah, nasihat, ade betol contohi. Media mmg keje diorang provoke itu, provoke ini. Biar lah diorang. Kiter yg boleh berfikir ni, buat ape yang betol. Jangan la kiter pon terikot-ikot. Jujurnya, Bersih 3 bukan medan aku, duduk bantah bukan medan aku. Aku ade medan aku sendiri. Tapi aku menyokong tujuan bersih 3 diadakan, cara pelaksanaan nya, itu tanggungjawab mereka yang melaksanakan. Bukan aku.

Last but not least, mereka2 yang berada dalam pkr, diorang orang aku, mereka2 yang berada dalam umno, diorang pon orang aku, these are my people. itu saje. and one more thing, polis pon rakyat juga. diorang pon beli barang kat kedai runcit jugak, diorang bukan nye dapat suma bende free. mmg tugas diorang kene kawal keadaan. aku rase, kalu peniaga kedai runcit ditugaskan untuk mengawal keadaan, mesti diorang pon kena tuduh macam2. sekian

post ini bukan bertujuan untuk menasihati, untuk mengisi masa lapang, untuk melontarkan pendapat, the purpose of this post is solely to prove to myself, that i still care. I do care.

Some tips for those who like to draw

Well, about what I am about to write, it's not really tips to draw better, or skills, or knowledge. Personally I regard it as a tools in producing a detail artwork, or a complicated one.
Forgive my english, I am not good at it, but i wrote this in english so that a lot of people can benefit from this.

It's better to recognize this skill or tool from an example. Below is a drawing that I produced about a year ago. Seems detail enough?


Okay, now try to focus only on whatever things within the red box, and imagine anything outside the box doesn't exist.



It's actually a mechanical wing. Still a lot of details and complicated? Then zoom in your focus into one of the blade of the wings.



Now, it does look less complicated, right? But one more time we zoom in. :D



Now, dont tell me this is detail or complicated. If you can do this, you can do the whole drawing. You can put as much details in your artwork, make it as complicated as possible, without having any thought that producing this kind of artwork is hard.

Basically what we do is focusing our mind on a small part of that drawing. Break the drawing into small parts. The smaller the part, the better, the more complicated it will be. Put detail on one part, after another. Work and focus on one particular part, work on it one by one.

But of course you need to finish your drawing/artwork within your head first, before you put it on paper. Plan your artwork, make a rough sketch first, doesn't matter if the drawing look simple at first, you gonna put more details onto it as you detail one part after another. Below I show how I break the drawing into many parts.



Within a part, you can have more smaller part. It will help you to put even more detail, making your artwork more complicated at the same time manageable.

And that's it. The best thing about this is you will surprise yourself how detail can you go. Because when you are drawing, your mind is focusing on that smaller part and only that part, then you move to another part. Of course somewhere in between you will break your focus, and just look at the whole drawing. When you do that, trust me, you will be surprised on the amount of details you have put on your artwork.

Below are some drawings that I produce many years ago using the same technique , and they are still pretty impressive for me.



Your artwork will certainly be time consuming, but everything seems doable if you practice this. I dont know about you guys, but it does help me in producing detail and complicated piece. Just bear in mind, this will never work if ;

1. you are lazy
2. you are thinking that this is a short cut
3. you can't control you subconscious, in other words, you can't focus
4. you don't have patient and passion

And remember, you need a lot of vocabulary to produce a good artwork. So do spend some time observing other people's work, famous architect or illustrator, whatever. After all, no matter how good their works are, they are just human like us, and all those drawing are just a combination of simple lines that being put together brilliantly in order to achieve a pleasant lines, or shape. so it's certainly doable. :D

And last but not least, if you find this beneficial, I hereby demand you to use it for a good reason. :)

and yeah, it will be great if you wanna share it.
