The Rococo style of art gives off a light and fairy-like vibe to it. It is an art that uses mainly light, pastel colors such as white, baby pink, pale yellow, etc. to paint a playful, less formal portrait. In a Rococo painting, the subjects tend to be little-affected by the shadows that cover their backgrounds; almost as if they're glowing in the light. This was my try on the Rococo style of furniture.  Before:  Process Video: After: Thank you so much for reading.

Bawat isa sa atin ay may kanya kanyang karanasan; masaya, malungkot, mahirap, o mapaghamon. Iba’t ibang panahon, iba’t ibang pagkakataon. Bawat isa sa atin ay konektado sa isa’t isa. Minsan tayo ay tinutulungan, minsan naman tayo ay tumutulong. Isa sa mga hindi ko makakalimutang karanasan ng pagtulong ay noong sumama ako sa isa sa mga ginawang Feeding Progmam ng aking mga magulang. Kahit lugaw lang ang hinanda ng aking Mommy at Daddy, lasap na lasap ng mga bata ang sarap nito dahil siguro ito ay tauspusong ginawa para sa kanila. Makikita mo talaga sa kanilang mga mukha ang tuwa at saya habang sila ay nakapila para kumuha ng lugaw. Hindi ko lubos na mapaliwanag ang naramdaman ko noong merong lumapit sa akin na bata na nagpapasalamat. Hindi ko man masyadong naintindihan ang kanyang mga sinabi, pero ramdam na ramdam ko ang kanyang saya. Hinihikayat ko lahat na magtabi na kahit konte para ipamahagi sa napakaraming kapus-palad na nangangailangan ng tulong. Tulad ng aking mga magulang na...

Accents. An accent is something you pick up from the moment you are taught how to speak; it it influenced by your parents, caretakers, teachers, your surroundings, and the media you consume. Most children learn their vocabulary from the things they observe; such as television shows, cartoons, the people around them. And with that vocabulary comes an accent. Just like how many young children who watch Peppa Pig end up speaking in a British accent regardless of where they're from. I did my best in doing the British accent, and although I'm not too good at it right now- as heard in the videos, my accent keeps faltering, I will do my best to improve myself in order to properly commit to this lovely accent.

  Proud na proud ako sa araw na ito dahil ang dami-daming nangyari. Gumising ako mga alas singko ng umaga upang mag-dasal. Pagkatapos, gumawa ako ng breakfast para sa aming lahat. French toast ang ginawa ko. Ito ay simpleng tinapay lang na linagyan ng itlog, gatas, at asukal, pagkatapos ay ipiprito lang. Napakasarap nito kahit simpling simple lang. Pagkatapos ng agahan, naglinis ako sa sala namin; pinunasan ko ang mga gamit, pagkatapos ay nag-vacuum ako ng carpet, at nag-walis sa aming kusina. Pagkatapos kong maglinis, ay nag-dilig naman ako ng halaman, at napakaswerte ng lamok at kinagat ako. Nagpakain din ako ng aming mga isdang tilapia. Nakakain na ba kayo ng isdang tilapia? Ang pinakamalaki naming nakuha sa aming mga tilapia ay mga 1.2 kg ang laki, halos kasing laki ng dalawang kamay. Alam nyo ba na mas malaki ang lalaking tilapia kay sa babae? Kaya pag-gusto mong mag-negosyo dapat mga lalaking tilapia ang piliin mong alagaan. Yan lang yata ang mga naitulong ko sa aking m...

 Sfumato, Unione, Chiaroscuro,  and Cangiante. The 4 big styles of the classical periods. For a quick overview; Sfumato is a line-less style developed by Leonardo Da Vinci himself. Da Vinci was always keen on the compositions and the art of life and wanted to emulate it through his own art.  The Sfumato technique incorporates soft, gradual gradients of shadows and light, creating a sort of blurry or vague deep quality to the painting. His Mona Lisa for instance showcases this technique best. The sfumato technique often features muted, brownish tones. With my very  limited materials as well as very limited skill and experience with the medium, I did my very best to try and emulate this style. Although I wouldn't say it's my best output, I do want to explore more of this technique for future projects-both for school and personal reasons. The next style is Unione. For a basic overview; the Unione painting technique was developed by Raphael as a response to Da Vinci's Sf...
