Sketchbook

Recently I noticed that there is something that's not very nice of me...
I dunno...
it seems like at times, I seems to talk arrogantly or behave kind of proud esp when coming to design...I am filled with confidence esp when explaining when certain design I think isn't a good design...and what should be done to improve it..
I really hope people dun find me proud becuz of that..
I tends to get a little worked up if someone doesnt understand design and start commenting that the design or my design isn't good..
As designers, we must cater the needs of our customers giving them what they want..but first, they themselve must really know what they want..
Design is not just about drawing...
its about the uniqueness of portraiting a message which u wants to bring out to the audience. There are lots of great designers out there in the market. Each have their strong points...some good in technique, some good in drawing, i.e what we called illustrations and some design with concept.
I set up my own design company called "sketchbook".
Many are impressed by my namecard..cuz its simple yet outstanding..
That's my selling point..Uniqueness..
Everyone has a diff perspective in life..
For me..I enjoy looking and observing from angles which people normally take it for granted or do not notice. From there I design a unique concept which you can hardly find anyone using it..special namecards -which is very important as it represents who u or ur company are. And wedding cards...
Why is my company named sketchbook?
Reason: very simple- Sketchbook is where all imagination is put into reality..
as a designer we are trained first sketch thumbnail..in our sketchbook..to derive our concept and ideas before we decide what we want..
If everything is only in the mind up there..it will never become a final product if u dun start sketching it out..
Does it make sense?
So..in another words..Sketchbook is where imagination comes to life. Its essential. Most basic needs to get a design and product out.
Thus with that concept..my company's card is printed in Black and white..
One might think its so boring..black and white...hmm..you will change ur view like those who have rec'd my card..
I chosed a rough texture card and kind of soft like the sketchbook pad..feel..
and have the front printed solid black with white tiny details..and huge SKETCHBOOK in silver hotstamp which catches the attention of whoever that recieve this card..
and at the back of it..i play with simple texts in black and play around with black highlight box with reverse white words..indicating what service/designs i do..

Conclusion: Its normally the simple that catches the eye..
that's Sketchbook.

Welcome if you need any design service from me..I will do my best and we work together to bring out the best and uniqueness of what u need.
my hp: 90037304
p.s. My design company is on freelance basis meaning..I only do it on my off day or after my official working hours so..do give me some time to work out a good design for u...A rush design will never be a good design..like I always say..

Final Destination of Everyone

Money often deceive us, leading us to forget we will die some day. Poor people will die, Rich people will also die.
In the bible, it says to the Rich, today your life will be taken from you, what will happen to the riches you have stored up for yourself.
So be Wise- store up for yourself treasures in heaven which never rot as it has eternal value.
Our stay in this world is but only max. hundred over years..
but compare to life in eternity after death, what seems long here is but only a grain in heaven.

My Zodiac

Angeline's Zodiac Sign - TAURUS

9 may Taureans never slap or sting. Rather, they creep up on you, affect you deeply and leave their indelible impression on your soul. Think of Taurus as a long sensual kiss. A huge tender bear hug. Or an eiderdown on a cold alpine night. Taureans are warm (but sometimes stodgy) customers.

Many Taureans work with their hands. Even if a Taurus is a computer expert and seems more cerebral than manual, nine times out of ten there is a hidden craft or hobby lurking behind the scenes. Taureans enjoy forging beautiful things from natural materials. In fact, they are attracted to all sorts of beauty. Music thrills them. Flowers enchant them. The countryside seduces them. And art is their natural habitat.

Taureans are forever building their own workshops and renovating barns and old churches. They are not only home-loving, they like to get their hands into the cement and slather on the plaster, if only for the tangible joy of playing in the mud.

Taureans do not take kindly to sudden change. They like to be wherever they are supposed to be when it is time to be there. Taureans readily adjust to routine and for that reason make fabulous employees. Precipitous and unexpected events requiring flexibility and resilience may cause Taureans to dig in their hooves and refuse to budge. Bulls are obstinate and determined to hold their ground. It is wiser not to try to talk Taurus out of a sulk. Just let him paw the earth and snort and seethe on his own. Take a tranquilizer and a walk. Soon, when the inevitable becomes blatantly inevitable, Taurus will budge of his own accord, come out of his sulk and go with the flow.

Sensuality belongs to Taurus. Wherever there is pleasure you will find a Taurean plunk in the middle of it all. They love to bask in the "good life." Taureans cannot resist the tug of the opposite sex. When an attractive newcomer arrives on the scene, count on Taurus to see to it that the outsiders have a drink, are made comfortable and have slipped Taurus a telephone number or two.

Taureans are amorous and romantic without being flighty or maudlin. They are tender and don't mind public displays of affection. Love and all of its expressions appeal to the Bull. Taureans can be counted on to stray a bit where sex is concerned, but they never flaunt their infidelities and usually avoid sticky extracurricular entanglements. If you love a Taurus, feed him.
