A flower arrangement for my aunt this Vesak Day.

I got up at 7 this morning and went to the market to get flowers for my aunt. I think I spent almost half an hour at the florist shop looking for suitable flowers for the day's occasion and for my aunt. These are the flowers that I have picked and arranged.

Initially, I had intended to buy white chrysanthemums instead of the yellow ones. However, I felt that the yellow ones are more natural and lively. This is a simple arrangement and I am contented with what I had done. I am glad that my aunt likes it. I'll bring flowers to her whenever there is a special occasion...

My pot of sunflower...

If I have a garden, my garden will be filled with sunflowers and they will be standing tall and bright. They simply look beautiful to me. The sunflowers face only in one direction, that is towards the sun. Can you imagine all sunflowers in your garden facing the same direction towards the sun from east to west and facing  eastward again the next morning before the sun rise? Hmm... I can picture that. My "sunshine" garden...

Red roses...

This may be a  simple bouquet of red roses but it can speak a thousand words. I spent the whole of last week in Far East Flora, arranging flowers for Mother's Day. I realised during my "vacation" in Far East Flora that among all the roses, yellow roses are the most beautiful roses. I was suprised then... I have always loved white roses.

Sunflowers always make me smile and of course, so do the rest of the flowers. When I visit a florist shop, the first thing I look out for is the sunflower. Sunflowers are tall, bright and particularly attractive and smiley to me. Whenever I finish a flower arrangement, I would say to the flowers "flowers, GLOW!" I love nature and respect nature.

When I am connected with flowers, I behave like an anthomania (花痴):o). I am glad to know that some of those who love flowers behave the same way like I do. At least, I know it is normal and I am normal :o). I haven't been drawing lately. Starting to miss drawing. Will put up some animal sketches as well as... perhaps, children's portrait :o). 

Doraemon and flowers...

That's my Doraemon and the flowers that I have created. Picture is taken by Melanie. I think she takes better picture than I do. Can you see Doraemon's arm bulging out a little? Yes, that's what I am refering to, his MUSCLE... A badminton player too:o).

I spent an hour and a half this morning distributing my flyers. I always take this as a form of exercise. I feel great looking at my flyers that Melanie and I have designed. I am happy that I am working for myself and doing things that I love. Melanie asked me if I have a holiday mood on this Labour Day. I told her I am on holiday everyday simply because I am doing things that I love... 

''I choose what I want to think... and do what I want to do... and keep doing what I am doing... Eventually, I turn my thought into reality..."  Move with art...
