From the simple purpose of teaching children basic building skills to fanatic adult collectors, Lego has always promoted creativity and fun! I don't think I have ever come across anyone who dislike or have never played with Lego before. The exciting news is that Access-Agency is collaborating with the world's biggest toy company on a giant Lego building project. Access-Agency holds a reputation in creating jaw-dropping effects with their globally recognized advertising campaigns. This project reminded me of James May, Top Gear's show host, when he builds a life sized Lego house a couple of years back. However, a house is nothing compared to a giant Lego Darth Vader with his light saber waiting for you in an underground garage. They even mentioned "incredible opportunities to add sound as well." Probably saying, "Luke, I am your father!" BRILLIANT! Hahaha... I'm in full throttle dork mode right now.

I must have the complete series of these vintage DC comic posters illustrated by Michael B. Myers Jr.! But if I had to really choose then I would only settle for Wonder Woman, Superman, Dark Knight, Robin and the one of The Flash is just too cool.

"The Yin & Yang Dogs" Apr 24 - May 15, 2011.  Wijaya 1 No. 39

Congratulations! (Sanchia T Hamidjaja)

"Lost/Found" (Acrylic on Canvas): This piece was inspired when Sanchia lost her pug, Ringo. I take delight in the fact that I got to enjoy art as well as play Where is Ringo.
 

 There is Ringo!

"Still from Loyally Bored"


 

Chinese people believe that the black and white shapes within the yin and yang circle represent the interaction of two energies, which causes everything to happen. Similarly, such energies were accidentally sighted during a random night, when two hound breeds cuddled in the shape of the yin and yang symbol. I was introduced to Sanchia's Ringo (a white male pug) and Kwamee (a brindled female french bulldog) yesterday at her first solo exhibition. These dogs are the core inspiration behind "The Yin & Yang Dogs" series. Aside from the creative dimension and talent used to portray the lives of two very adorable characters, the overall display unwrapped a feeling of giddiness. I was smiling and laughing and completely drawn to their stories. Must love dogs!
