try everything

Now, experiment time.

One day I was eating Skittles, and remembering that I used to show off my blue tongue every time I eat m&ms. Great childhood...well, I probably did after fully grown up.
Anyway,  I came up with an idea and put few skittles into a bottle of water. What happened? —the colour came off the skittles.







Once I started experiments, I cannot help myself trying other ideas one after another so the next to do was to put many colourful stuff in water then freeze in ice.






Most of them didn't go as I expected but some of them went ok, and very few of them turned out much better than I imagined. This is experiment.
After, my interest drifted to candles that is material I have already explored at least twice, one in high school and the most recently in leather project. Fortunately I knew that I can get good range of candles at Tiger, and had some random stuff including hama beads.





At first I disgusted with creepy things I made, but gradually those things seemed potential texture of 'something'. It's funny that I started those experiments as a part of my colour research but now I almost hate those colours and love the texture.
Although I'm not 100% happy with the results, I got results at least that is better than trying nothing.

Drawing time!

After a long holiday, now I'm finally a 4th year student. I'm scared but happy, really happy.
The theme of my final project is building sites and construction!
