Satay



Satay or sate is a dish consisting of chunks or slices of dice-sized meat (chicken, goat, mutton, beef, pork, fish, etc.) on bamboo skewers (although the more authentic version uses skewers from the midrib of the coconut leaf). These are grilled or barbecued over a wood or charcoal fire, then served with various spicy seasonings (depends on satay recipe variants).

Satay may have originated in Java, Indonesia, but it is also popular in many other Southeast Asian countries, such as: Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand, as well as in The Netherlands which was influenced through its former colonies.

Self Portrait 2



This is my oil pastel self portrait second attempt after three months since the first one. Okay, my sister told me the real person looks better, it seems that I uglify myself in this portrait. But what if one day the portrait looks better than the real person, what does this indicate?

Panda

I have done some sketches of panda. I never see a real panda, all panda I saw was through photo and images downloaded from the internet. I really hope one day I have the chance to see one in real.


Panda looks so cute, that is the reason people fancy about them? Panda always looks smiling, does they really smiling all the time? I doubt it.


Recently, I like to start my initial sketch in gray. To sketch panda, gray is really an important colour to start with.


This is the same sketch after I filled in other colours.


This panda is resting on the top of the wood branch.



Its already very late now, I think I need to hit the sack, good night pandas.
