Stuff I Made/Did

Art has always been a hobby and a form of therapy for me. I like playing with different media (e.g. I made the acrylic pouring work in the header in this blogs home page), but I usually just draw using good ol pencil and pen. I have also casually picked up calligraphy in 2017, because lettering is fun! It also helps me to be more patient, and to "trust the process" - some things need time and perseverence, after all.

You can check out what I've been up to at my IG @doodlesbyz and my doodle journal.

KL Sketchnation

KL Sketchnation (KLSN) is a community of urban sketchers who have been around for a number of years, hosting sketchwalks but also other events and activities. I joined them as a member of Bangsa Pelakar in 2019 for fun, and have gotten to know a lot of amazing and inspiring artists since then.

MY Artjamming

MY Artjamming is an art community I co-founded with Cikgu Huda to conduct monthly artjamming sessions, where we make art (and friends!) as a form of expression and as a way of healing. 

Established in 2018, we've run over 15 sessions with different themes related to arts and crafts to invite those interested/curious about art to have fun.
