bjork's world of creativity

" not everybody can be a painter -
and there is no need also.
if everybody is a painter,
the world will be very ugly;
it will be difficult to live.

but everybody can be creative."

bjork's painting

bjork's painting, i like it so much.
compare to my recent artwork...
... a start for myself to research
on music... year 1996,
i like my design process of that year.

stone painting

this painting was describe about
myself as a hard-liner...

sometime i try so hard to
change myself for a new prosecution.
but end up till remain not changing...

music heart painting

the word "concept" original
come from music. that's why
for me art is part of music too.

those who hear no music
think the artist mad.

green lotus painting

try to draw those simple topic.
keep every month finished
one piece artwork...
cause if think too much on
concept, at the end sure
cannot come out anything.

japanese dragon painting

4 hidden dragon in this painting.
represent some hidden talent..
i try out van gogh & japanese art style.
become a new fusion stroke...
and the tone of this painting was a bit down...
i seldom use this kind of colour combination.

playfulness

the moment you start seeing life
as non-serious, a playfulness,
all the burden on your heart disappears.

p/s: this is not paint when i childhood.
its paint when i turn adult...
i always like to act like a child,
even paint like a child...

self portrait @ 1995

this illus was done by 1995.
remember that time started
to love research an reading encyclopedia.

this painting shown myself
open up an encyclopedia was
quite meaningful for myself till now...

about depression painting

last 2006 dec, i am facing depression
toward my emotion... i redraw this
masterpiece from munch - "the scream"

i feel better after express my depression out.
but its taking 2 months for me to pass thru
this process...

japanese koi painting

recently, i fall in love with japanese art style.
this is the first piece i draw on it...
realize a lot of young artists are not
interested on those traditional topic.
maybe this is the reason, i started
to draw on this, restore it...
come out my own style later...

butterfly painting

20inch x 30inch, oil pastel.
about dream, or butterfly effect,
in abstract way.
... feeling of butterfly flying
surround your chest...
feeling of fall in love...

this is talk about family,
a cant take away things from me.
it become nerve of my belongings.
and also where my treasure is.

pi ciu painting

oil pastel 18inch x 18inch

sometime, i see myself a "old fashion"
kind of people. i can't accept things
that very new, & people hype about...
i like to study those subject from far history
& less people interested or talk about.

"pi ciu" was metaphor my desire of knowledge.

beauty painting

ideas from poison ivy,
men killed by a beauty.
most dangerous beauty
come from its natural born...

the source painting

18inch x 18inch oil pastel

the source is in circle, pure space
spirit, totality, wholeness,
femaleness, no beginning,
no ending, self-contained heaven.

when we begin a creative project,
when we speak of being grounded or centered,
it is this source we talking about.

bjork print

this is fun, by using only cutting
skills to bring out the negative part
of the picture. an then print it
out manually.
