These are two paintings in my bedroom.
For the first one, I painted a 10x12 canvas in cerulean blue acrylic colour, then mixing in a bit of white, I made the path, made the buildings with phtalo blue , and painted the lights with the help of a pallet knife, and finally painted the lamp post, and the man in the end
The second one was actually a sketch I made at F-9 park of bamboo, on my front, were the bamboo, while on my back, was a bridge, though, I only captured the bamboo in the sketch, but when I decided to paint them, I also included the bridge. 
It doesn't looks as nice as I thought, because of the bamboo on the left, I painted them a bit thicker than I meant to, but I'll have to get along with it, after all, we all learn through our mistakes, and I'm sure that this painting was also a learning experience for me.


This is the sketch I made in my diary at F-9 park, in my opinion, it looks far better than the painting, doesn’t it?

 These are a couple of my paintings I hanged in my bedroom. The first one, I painted on a 10x10 canvas, using black, and green water colours, and a silver paint marker.  First, I painted a random black diamond on the canvas, then painted the inside with green water colour, and then stroked it with a toothbrush for a free style look. In the end, I wrote Eleanor Roosevelt's quote "You can often change your circumstances by changing your attitude" using a silver paint marker. The second one, I painted on a 8x8 canvas, using ivory black, lemon yellow, cerulean blue, cerulean orange, phtalo green, burnt umber, raw umber, Chinese white, and crimson red acrylic colours. In the beginning, I drew a line on the bottom quarter of the canvas, to divide it up between table cloth, and the back ground, then, drew check design using s regular pencil, and a scale, then painted them in using crimson red acrylic colour, (didn't bothered for the white, since the canvas was already white)...

Embroidery

 I made this embroidery of geometrical shapes on a canvas using red, and green sewing thread. To be honest, I didn't followed any rules, and steps for embroidery to create this piece. Firstly, I didn't made it on  an embroidery cloth, secondly, I did random horizontal, vertical, and diagonal stitching, and thirdly, I didn't even used embroidery thread! To make this piece, I first drew shapes on canvas using a scale, and a regular pencil. Then I simply filled them in by stitching with red, and green stitching thread. And oh, I forgot to thank my neighbour for lending me her red thread, because I didn't had any such shades except for, green, white, and black, not a good contrast, is it?
