There's always a first time for everything. And last 2012 had been a year of firsts for me. One of the things I never imagined that I'll have a first time with is an art exhibit. But I was lucky enough to be invited by one of my friends, Don Demetita, to submit an artwork for the Children's Month Celebration last October 5, 2012 to the University of the Philippines Visayas (UPV) Art Gallery.

Thank you, Lord!

My birthday face! I painted this yesterday on my birthday --this is how colorful my life has become!

Dear Lord,

Thank you for birthday gifts that you have given, both great and small! Thank you for all the people and experiences that have helped shaped my entire 27 years.

Love,

Your child, Maia

Two dark thoughts and a light one

(otherwise titled, "The actual state of things")

These two darker drawings would basically reflect the general feeling of utter discord that I feel nowadays. Now, don't feel better for me yet because the light floral watercolor was from better times, just uploaded late.

As you can see, I started with a flower, and from there proceeded to hair which looks like a flower or a flower which is actually hair (however you see it, it's of very little importance) and to just, hair-- crazy hair.

Oh, well.
