“We DRAW.”

Nataliette goes back in time…

Posted: July 6th, 2010 | Author: nataliette | Filed under: portfolio | Tags: , , , , , | 3 Comments »

Ola OIC! This is my very first post on here… so pardon any awkwardness please?

I’m Nataliette and I’m a designer who likes to draw. I do mainly digital illustrations as I seldom like to get my hands dirty, but occasionally I do enjoy rubbing charcoal on paper. My most revered idols would be Salvador Dali and Oscar Wilde.

Here’s some of my old work done during artschool and secretly doodling when I was supposed to be listening to my lecturers…

Sometimes when I feel jaded or completely uninspired, I like to flip through my old sketchbooks and kind of travel back in time to reopen the eyes of that naivete and enthusiastic younger artist in me.

My recent artistic ventures are much much different from those now (and I realise, quite sadly, that these are much less varied).
Here are some little samples.

You can see more of my work in my portfolio or at my blog. Pleased to meet you!


Eye

While all the adults pitying and worrying the future of the one eye kid.
We seems forgotten that the kid is enjoying a different colourful dream with his blind eye.
No matter good or bad dreams life will still go on.

This is a long due post for Michael and everyone at OIC.

First and foremost, Happy Birthday OIC … CONGRATULATIONS to Michael, FleeCircus, San San, Twisstii, Andrew and those I haven’t met or got the name yet, but who has been working so hard on OIC, promoting illustrators from Singapore. Thank you and give each one of you a big round of applause. You guys rock!

Also congratulations to all of the participants of A6/Future show. Excellent work. So much energy in each piece.

Secondly, just want to let you know that Guai Wu The Chinese Elf, the picture book that I have been working on for the longest time, is finally out!

I have a launch for kids this Sunday (4th October) at Borders Book Parkway at 2pm and would like to invite all of you to come and join me and my writer Adeline Foo. Lee Kowling, another children’s book illustrator-friend will be hosting her event for her picture book Georgette’s Mooncake and The Beaded Slippers, written by the same author, this Saturday (3rd October) at Borders Book Wheelock at 2pm.

Thanks to Michael and FleeCircus again for advising on the colour scans. I have lots to learn from the two masters. :)

Keep inspiring!

A child lights up the mid autumn night with her hand-made lantern. There, she discovers hopes and there are better tomorrows to come by …So calm and joyous.
