近年喜愛銀柳, 原來銀柳配上粉紅劍蘭, 都好靚好清雅, 只是天氣回暖花開得好快...

made in hongkong

農曆新年假期後, 是香港09年入冬最嚴寒的日子, 亦是我最最最忙碌的四天, 有點自憐辛酸, 唯仍祝願今年繼續多勞多得! (不勞而獲輪不到我...)
i'm freezing and really exhausted for last busy week...

到了apm的Kubrick, 見到不同的香港 手作創作, 好興奮! 亦終於認識了部份 la belle epoque 的手作(始終未有造訪其大坑小店), 感謝 la belle epoque 的出現才能在香港凝聚了一群喜歡手作的朋友!
thanks la belle epoque gather many hk handcraft artists in their shop.

















vicplayground的刺繡作品實在非常可愛!
vicplayground embroidery is sososo lovely!














Aileen Zakka, Aileen 的手飾非常典雅
the accessories, made by Aileen, are so elegant















還有很多精彩的手作創作人,可到 la belle epoque 慢慢欣賞; 見到人家漂亮的作品, 深感自己的不足, 亦鼓勵自己要更努力, 希望有天可跟他們一樣參加不同的市集! 像台灣的大陸的, 讓手作在香港繼續發光發熱!!
題外話, 發覺喜歡手作的朋友大都愛陳綺貞盧廣仲呢...:)
find more in la belle epoque , hope to join them later.

韓美林 Han Mei Lin 是當代中國藝術家, 揉合傳統技術加上現代的設計意念, 尤其他設計的文字書法著重線條帶點實驗味道, 我覺得非常討好, 非常喜歡他書畫的動物造型和用色, 他最為人所認識的設計該是北京奧運的吉祥物 - 福娃.

An auspicious year of Tiger by Huang Yong Yu黃永玉
Huang Yong Yu is a very famous Chinese artist. His Chinese calligraphy, painting, sculpture are lively and full of vitality, even he is 86 years old now!
黃永玉於中國藝壇絕對是大師級了, 愛其作品不論是書法, 國畫, 版畫還是雕塑, 率性活潑, 以老練的技巧瀟灑地表現自己八十多歲的赤子心.
Today is the first day of Chinese lunar year of tiger, wish you all have a satisfied, smooth and successful year!!!
