“Collide”

a detailed WIP. My first digital art rendition in Full background :) I’ll be a more serious artist when I finished my chores and this architectural review craze! 

The Character is owned by the awesome Laura Hunt btw. This is actually a contribution to her upcoming artbook. So glad that this’ll be included :)

( manual hand drawn-cleaned in PS-inked & colored in SAI-final touches in PS)

I have lots of blogs to post and finish-not to mention some of projects to launch as well! whew!-, i hope this week I can catch up with you all! ciao for now lol.

This question haunts me everyday, even up to now that, after months of complete hiatus here and working on everything else that concerns passion and life. I’ve always been an ideal person, pushing my own limits so that I may find the very same happiness defined by my own vocabulary: doing what you want while inspiring others.

more easy to say than getting this done actually. But really, I’ve been too serious that I even forgot to have fun till I realized I’ve been stressing myself to much, forgetting all reasons why I do things madly. I was striving for perfection already.  

so now I stop, take a pause, and re-think…and remind myself as I share to you this note I found months ago as well:

After all they say these kind of journey are the ones not really easy to get by, but would always be the one that is worth it. :)

                                                   

Belated Kung Hei Fat Choi and Hearts day to all! I’ve been dying to post everything that’s in the drafts. time is such a treasured thing. lol.

my design philosophy for 2013

Let’s be a game changer this year, yeah? 

xx, Fritz

     

waking up in the morning is hard, but trying to get yourself to eat breakfast is even worse. Everyday I try to reward myself with pancakes, bacons, eggs and a coffee whenever i get to wake up early. can you relate? haha. As November is fast passing by, Christmas jitters is getting me and you excited-slash-stressful. Now this is the part where planning and to-do lists really comes rescuing us, making every minute productive possible. you may get everything done on time, but is every minute working on everything fullfilling?

Aaand that’s just to break the ice! (and supposedly, to make you question your existence if you’re really where you wanna be haha), because in all this chaotic times, I’m happy to share some new projects, collaborations and series that will add up in this ultimate creative crazy blog: 

                                    *okay drumrolls please!*

      

                                       *aand drumrolls ends here*

These are bunch of concepts I came up with for the past few weeks. it just, it took me a week to layout my mind really but it was worth it. Part of organizing my thoughts here in this little bog of mine and part of my own dreams where I push through my advocacy: as an aspiring architect/designer/entrep promoting creative design &  lifestyle that sets to build a nation where people inspires each other ( or which I preferably call it, “InspireNation” haha). whew it was long. But dreams are supposed to be big, aren’t they? ok, before I dabble about dreams and silliness again, lemme share the projects to you in details :)

 

CoLove Movement- one of the few things I’m pretty excited about. and the vision goes like this: Collaborations. creative youth. one inspiring nation. simple as that. I’m encouraging everyone to pour all those creative juices out and share some happiness, while doing something you love!

The Legendary Lifestyle- ever felt so bored even in your own home? wanna do something new for a change in your life? Good news, I have the same problem too! but we’re taking the big step now: to do something bout it. (finally!) I’ll be posting some art & design tips, notes and D.I.Y projects that can make lives more inspiring and happy.  Let’s chase that dream lifestyle, shall we?!

fritzdesignslife: the untold stories- I know I’ve been promoting my other err stand alone blog (me and my non-architectural drawings and stuff haha) and I’ve decided to be posting the stories behind the drawings here in my personal blog.

Wanderush!- I just had my Bacolod trip and made a photo diary out of it, and guess what, I fell more in love with travelling, adventures, wanderlust and everything that fits inside my backpack while experiencing culture at its sweetest state. So my adventures is just starting and I’ll be sharing it with you all so that you’ll be somehow motivated to get away from your pc/lappy and see it for yourself haha!

There you go! I hope I got you excited as I am. this is after all, the on-going pursuit of dreams & following your bliss. So if you’re shouting for change, believe you can alter your stars or you just want to be a dinosaur, just stick around :) or if you wanna collaborate with me in the inspiring scheme, then please send me love and I’ll be glad to meet you. Dreams aren’t mean to be expensive. you just have to know what to do. So Let’s do this!

                                                                      

Aaaaand, I just recently joined society6 and Behance,  which I’ll be promoting my next concept series there as well, so if you’re also on those creative community please add me up. another please and thank you very much!:)

    

work in progress!:) soon on www.fritzdesignslife.tumblr.com!

    

    

time sure flies so fast. it was only January 2012 then after a blink, we’re only two months away to 2013!! we’re even 53 days & 12 hours before Christmas as of the moment (hearing those jolly medley and decos on malls already?)

its also been a month since I started on my drawing illustrations (and blog) seriously, while having architectural and design works along the way. Difficult yeah, but always happy! I’m doing everything I loveeee. its a small step as a start at least, if i’ll be wanting to make my vision real: to be promoting a happy, and creative lifestyle as an architect/illustrator/designer. and how will i do this crazy thing? with love of course :) and a little of planning with lots of creative concepts. 

                            

and because November is just just starting, why dont you go make a moodboard about the things you’ll be working on this month? put some quotes, photos or whatever you’d like that sparks your inspired juices for your month! imma share mine right here:

    

For me, November will be a month of continually rediscovering of myself as well as my works (whew. thats deep haha) It also includes the quote that I’ll definitely be holding on whenever I’ll feel like giving up and a lot of conceptual reference that will help me in my project ( like fixing my room, commissions and freelance design). I’m putting a lot of colors in it so remind me life is indeed colorful…different chaos but when put together they’re harmonious :) If you’ve been following my blog for a year also, then you notice that I did a little reinventing here. As much as this will be my written chronicle of how I’m going to be chasing my dreams in building an “inspiring nation”, I also made up my mind to fill this space with things I do, that’ll hopefully bring out your creative juices as well!

I can’t wait to tell you all of many collaborations and illustrations for the next coming days! I’m hoping you stay tuned! I’m giving out some tips as well as a part of interaction between you, my readers as well :)

lets cross our fingers and let this month begins!!
