Together In Blood

Game of Thrones Themed Online Exhibition-Together In Blood
Together In Blood

Together in Blood
What a time to bond!
This last hour
I kept all this for you
But we must now go together
How do I show affection?
Under this fire
Hold my hands
Let's go through that gate together

Towers

Towers

Towers
Strong memories
Binding walls
Closed doors
Observant gates
Murmuring steps
Winding stairs
Shouting flags
Proud banners
Towers

Willow

Willow
Willow
Follow the wind
It won't break you
Agree with it
It will only bend you
It may rage
It can't uproot you
It is rigid
Be pliable
It may rage
It can't change you
Willow

Mollusca

Mollusca
Mollusca
Time can be deceptive
 Not intentionally
Everything and anything
Can make it look fast
or slow
The monotony of sound
Or the clanging hooves of war
The gentle breeze of clement weather
Or the brewing darkness of a winter's storm
Time can be deceptive
Not intentionally

Pyramid City: Now the Poem Matters

Pyramid City
Pyramid City
What is this?
We are going somewhere
But this is as good
A destination
Let's impact them
And move on
But impact
Has got to be impactful
Let's make a difference
Let's watch with time
Then we'll be on our journey
Away from Pyramid City

7 Boundaries

7 Boundaries
Life is about boundaries
At times we see them
Like prisoners on the other side
Barbed-wired see-through lattice

Other times they are so far away
Like peaks of mountain tops
Encased in clouds
We know its a distance away
Yet we can only imagine
The height of that wall
We have multiple boundaries
Some close, some far
Each their own kingdom
7 kingdoms

Oaths

Oaths   
Oaths
The force of an oath
Is only as meaningful

As the maker or hearer takes it 
We pay our debts 
We keep our oaths 
 Says who?
 Circumstances will want to interject 
Yet the force of an oath...

Self Potrait

Self Portrait

 
Self Portrait
This is us
Hopes & dreams
Power; lost & gained
Influence; retained & weaned
Children; birthed & gone
Loves; wilted & growing
Ambition; achieved & withered
Ageing; coming & coming
This is us

Seasons & Arrows

Seasons & Arrows
Seasons & Arrows
There will always be seasons
Will there always be arrows?
We ask with hope
The alternative is hopeless
Tremors of the swooshing sound
Death knells that never ceases
There will always be seasons
Will there always be arrows?
We can only ask in hope

HongKong Under Construction II Video: A Series of Frames

Herein lies the second part of Hong Kong Under Construction; Hong Kong Under Construction II

About this...
Each frame builds on the next but they also stand alone as artworks. The video itself stands alone as an individual artwork and not a collection of frames. Yet it is a natural continuation of Hong Kong Under Construction I. Now that you understand me perfectly...

Oh We Now Have An App: Paint LoafART App

History
The things we do just because we can. We now have an app, which to me is a big thing. Yet some 3 hours before it was published, it was not in any plans.
It was a spur of the moment thing. If you recall how loafart started, i.e. doodling with the Microsoft Paint program in between jobs. Well I was on a job, doing some background research into something that has been taking my time lately. One of the things got me looking at app building platforms. After trying out AppMakr or so, and got this nice shock at the tail end of building an app with them from scratch (all $499 of it if my memory serves me right), I remembered I had come across a platform that I recommended fro someone. I had forgotten the name but still remembered how they went about getting people to sign up with them. Google did the rest.
That is how I was re-introduced to AppGeyser, methinks and I built an app with them on the spot.

The App
Paint LoafART is a blog app. The content is derived from this blog. It is about Paint art, interviews and articles. I have registered it with about 3 platforms now. Two are pending i.e. Amazon and mandago (?) but Aptiote (I think I am mixing them up but I will have them corrected later) was immediate.
Amazon took my time! They asked for everything, including tax (like who does that?). But I felt I had achieved something when it was done -I should because it caused me a whole night of good sleep).

The Challenge
This blog needs content. The app needs to be marketed

The Call to Action
Help.
Download the app from this blog. You will see it at the top left corner of the first page.
Get it from its storefront on that platform I can't recall right now (I really need to get serious)
Get it from appgeyser
Share with friends

Other Matters
I think I have been commissioned to do Loafart for a poet. Keep you posted. Until the next post or making the corrections in this post Cheers
