Hi there!

Absolutely nothing beats the joy of watching water colours play on paper from the touch of a brush in my hand. I have and always will enjoy painting even though it sometimes takes me ages to get into the momentum of painting. ‘Scribbles and Splashes’ is a blog that I once began when I wanted to let go of the pent-up urge to splash with water colours and share pictures and the behind-the-scenes thoughts with my family sitting kilometres away from me. Over the years, it has been dormant for months (nearing a year and sometimes even more such as when motherhood beckoned!) and then been active in fits and starts.

Mid-2013 is when I feel like looking into the mirror and declaring this as “The Moment” that this becomes the year of the revival and flourish of ‘Scribbles and Splashes’, the blog and its growth into a self-sufficient near-full-time engagement for me.

I thrive in art. Period. If I could, that’s all that I would do all day long. It seems like a distant dream right now, but this is where I start playing around with a wish and seeing how it takes shape. I’m splashing, I’m scribbling about it and I’m becoming “an artist”. From exactly right now.

The Newly Marrieds


I've been wondering what would be an ideal gift for two of our very close newly married friends. I needed it to be in the groom's favourite colour - red, with a tough of the bride's tenderness (oh, she's sugar!) and sealed with our wish for a wonderful lifetime of togetherness ahead for them. This picture, from my mind, seemed to say it all.

I really wish they like it. I know it's not amazing, but I also know, I worked all night working at it. And for that reason alone, it's special to me!

    Thanks a ton, Sage - Agree with you wholeheartedly! The pride's more for the fact that I made it rather than HOW good it finally turned out to be!
