Strong Wind - Importance of a Paper Weight

You may want a paper weight if you must work on a single piece of paper outdoors.

Strong Wind - Holding On

It happens if you don't let go.

Rooster's Sunset

Today marks the 15th day of the new rooster lunar year. Known as Chap Goh Mei, it's also widely known to be the last day of the Chinese New Year celebrations. It's always sad on the last day of a celebration but let's look forward to a great year ahead. :)

Banana Leaves Abstract

Can't help feeling the title is might be misleading. Well, I've been de-stressing with the Paper app again by drawing and colouring what appears to resemble abstract art of banana leaves.

Genetically modified apples won't turn brown after slicing

The beauty of genetic engineering. The unattractive brownish oxidised stuff that you see in apples moments after cutting them is a thing of the past.

2016 Marks Record Rising Temperature 3 Years in a Row

Uh oh...

Average surface temperatures over land and the oceans in 2016 were 0.94 degrees Celsius (1.69 degrees Fahrenheit) above the 20th-century average of 13.9C (57.0F), according to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

But there's hope...

At a conference in Paris in late 2015, governments agreed a plan to phase out fossil fuels this century and shift to renewable energies such as wind and solar power. 

They agreed to limit warming to "well below" 2 degrees Celsius (3.6F) above pre-industrial times, while pursuing efforts for 1.5C (2.7F). By that yardstick, the rise stood at about 1.1C (2.0F) in 2016.

Identity Theft Possible If Portrait with "V" Peace Sign

High resolution digital cameras. Portrait of people showing the "V" peace sign or any other way with fingers facing the camera. Identity theft possibility. That's how technology had advanced to and how people misuse it. :(

FedEx Works - "Art of Delivery"

Every now and then we hear about how the delivery boys rough handle packages. Artist Walead Beshty shipped laminated glass sculptures (containers?) that fit the internals of FedEx boxes and sent them off. The result - interesting fingerprints of "rough" deliveries.

Soya Cincau

For those not familiar with the language, it's soya bean with herbal jelly. Is 16:9 or square format better in this case?

Happy New 2017

Happy New Year, folks! Inspired by a new year greeting with the panda head emoji.

Nothing can stop Christmas! Be merry!

Merry Christmas, folks! Just got to colour the drawing. Sorry if Santa looks a little scary. Hope Rudolph makes up for it. Santa and Rudolph are well protected by an aura of happiness... or you could say they look more like protected in a snow globe.
