I'm not an accredited music blogger or any of the kind but I wanted to share this wondrous and cool music I just heard last week in one of my busy nights editting our short film project. I was trolling around fb to kill time waiting for my downloads to finish when I caught a glimpse of an interesting post by one of my friends in fb. This friend of mine shared a link going to soundcloud ( a site in w/c you can freely upload your music). I've been to soundcloud before checking out music too and so what happened is I opened the link and VIOLA! my ear is tasting its candy-CATTSKI. >.<

         I don't really know much about her but when I checked out her page in fb, I've found out that she's also a Cebuana like me. I was a bit surprised since I am truly amazed with her voice that I thought what I'm hearing is a popular song abroad. She had a very nice diction and believe me, her voice is so powerful you'll catch yourself clicking the 'play' button again and again.
          I'm always a fan of Indie musicians in our country but most of them are from Manila. As what I'm saying I'm not fully aware of the very talented Cebuanos we have. After listening to almost all of CATTSKI's soundtracks in her soundcloud account, I feel much proud to pinned the FIlipino music in me. Her music makes me a much proud Cebuana too.
         Also, I've found out that she doesn't limit her talent in just singing songs, most of her songs are composed by her too. Her music never fail to sooth away my stress after a long day in school. I love all of her songs like the Secret Crush, Being Good, Me,50's etc. I always find them amusing but my favorite song from her is her newly release 'Monsters'. This song will gear up all its listeners to a new level of appreciating music to its fullest.

For almost three weeks now I've been very busy about school. There's the endless projects, exams, reports, presentations, etc. I just breathe today after a week of preparation for my presentation in one of my major courses. lol. Thank God he's always there to give me enough time and energy to have fun amidst the busy schedule I have. Never thought junior year in college would be this tough. Well, nobody said it was easy anyway. I'm just glad to make it through. Next week is our midterm exams and hopefully I'll manage to make it too.okay, I'm talking (complaining) a lot now. gomen.
So here's just another post that made me breathe much better :)

my sketch of Audrey Hepburn

This is my favorite photo of her when I searched for her over the net. I haven't really achieved the original look she had on her photo. yep I made her photo as my guide in sketching this one. Anyways,she's always stunning in every angle and I don't know why but I find Audrey easy to sketch.haha.srsly.

Another sketch of Hepburn

I actually made this aheadof the other sketch above. This is the first I did too when my mom bought me my first sketchpad.

yey, It's Lennon! John Lennon

Here's a drawing I made for my favorite The Beatles member, John Lennon. I don't have to explain why, do I? hahaha Made this using my signature ballpoint pen, mygel 0.5 LOL. Btw, I had some guide or reference to made this drawing too. I just searched for Lennon over the net too and found a similar drawing above so I made it. I don't remember who made the drawing, just found it in google. But the one above is my version.Credits for that guy anyway :) Lennon is always cool w/ his signature glasses.

Marilyn Monroe

An artwork for Marilyn Monroe. I don't really like, idolized her that much but a friend of mine asked me to draw her and so I did :D It's actually a combination of ink, paint (for the lips) and pencil (for shadowing).

The Beatles

My artwork for my favorite band.yey.The Beatles!!! This one's the famous FaceBeatles photo they have. I really, really love how they look in this drawing. You can find a lot of photos similar to this one. Funny fact about this thing is its size. The actual size of this drawing is 1x2, so you can imagine now how small it is. It just looks big here because of the photo size but if you notice it's a bit blur.lol. The important thing is I managed to succeed in making theface beatles. I tried making another version of this one, a lot bigger, but it didn't turn out to be the best. My classmate Valerie asked it from me as her birthday gift last year so she's the owner of that FAIL facebeatles now hahahahha.

James Dean

One of my artworks I consider one of my best.lol. I just love how I achieved to show Dean's face in a paint. In the reference photo I had, the paint color is supposed to be blue but my younger brother took it. What remains is my red paint so it's what I used for this one.

Note: All artworks above are made by me. I used different photos from google too as my reference/guide to draw them.

The Hairstyle, Fishbone braid

The Make-up, shades of blue

A close-up shot!

Candid shot

Imagine the clouds crying,
pouring colourless needles
washing out your pain.

The dust carrying
wind, is now cool and freezing,
penetrating in your skin.

It's telling you to
emerge yourself into the
warmth of the brown energy.
