A father's chronicle (Art and play)

I can see many a times how is drawings are reflecting what is in his world. Take for instance this piece of card which he drew quickly and gave to me as a suprise (put on my laptop).

Compare it with his Knights Kingdom set.... can you see the similiarity?

So, they borrow ideas from their experiences and weave in-and-out of their world of imagination...

This water-color drawing is about an attack in the high-seas on a pirate ship (No, he didn't paint it... he drew it, Yan helped him to paint most of it... he choose the colors). It is one of his "master pieces" after so many months. Some of his drawings are getting a bit complex.... the more complicated it is... the longer time he spent on it... and a fair chance he might be very tired after the whole process.

One way to relax is to play with his sister.

Now, come here...

A father's chronicle (Taking some time to have fun)

I think one of the healthy benefit of having children is that I get to find all sorts of excuse to play. So, over the weekend, I gather the family and took some time out for some fun. Here are the photos... yah, using my Nokia N70.

Still a happy boy now that he is five years old....

A happy girl at 5 months old.... OK, OK, most of the time we are happy people...

We were actually waiting for StarBucks to open... and she fell asleep...

At five months, she has very little hair... but so was Theophilus when he was at five months, and so we don't bother. Anyway, she does look pretty with her Mommy's hat... was shielding her from the hot sun!

Heh, look at my camera! Or is it a phone?

My happy family! I think my N70 flash is not that strong....
