OK now, my very first journal update in 2009. Last journal update was in Sep 1, 2008. Quite long time, ya.
OK, I'm back in DeviantArt .. For my foreign friends, my local friends, would love to reunite
So as an intro, I would like to pronounce y'all that now, I am officially graduate from my high school and unfortunately, 9 of my schoolmates cannot graduate this year yet. Yes, I'm serious for that number [for Indonesian high school friends who just graduated, 9 un-graduate classmates is quite "much" for you, right ? But this is the real
]
What about my next education ? May I share you here ?
OK, firstly, I took the entrance test in University of Indonesia and I choose French Literature or Dutch Literature for my future study. But God may doesn't wants me to study in University in Indonesia, or may be my luck wasn't work well so I didn't accepted there.
I turn to choose a private university. I choose Bina Nusantara University [Binus] for my future university and I took Visual Communication Design [Indonesian : Desain Komunikasi Visual or Iit usually shorten as DKV]. I've heard about a good news about DKV Binus lately, and I've read some article that DKV Binus currently holds the best DKV faculty in private university. So why not ? I took the entrance test and I got rank 2 on the entrance test. Quite satisfied with the result
I'll be studying permanently at early September 2009. And this is still Mid-July !! Come on, what a long time ! I looked like retarded unemployment boy who stays in the home !
Buuuuuuuuut .. I fill my time by practicing drawing in the sketchbook, practicing in photoshop.
A bit confessional for me about being an art student, the basic thing to be an art student is DRAW [fo sho], its a must ! And me ??? To be honest, I feel insecure about my drawing works. Really. I feel that my works isn't that good with my classmates who took DKV also together with me. I feel uncomfortable with my drawing works. Actually I can draw, but not an artsy draw or something like that. I can draw fashion sketch, like that fashion design sketch, a human proportion complete with the outfits.
I do have a plan to join Esmod Jakarta and majoring for Fashion Design and Pattern. But honestly, I am not have a brave to join fashion design. First, fashion designe is not about you can draw fashion sketch well. You have to learn how to use sewing machine correctly, and what if I use that sewing machine ? I could be sewing my own hands. Ouch
Another reason, like we know, a guy who took a fashion design are mostly gay. For me, I am a straight boy and I don't want to against my believes. And remember, fashion circumstance is very insecure for straight guy like me. No offense for other peoples out there, I have my God and I believe Him
K, back to topic. I totally feel insecure about my drawing works. I feel that my drawing works is nothing when I see other's gorgeous drawing works. But now, what can I do and what do makes me took DKV as my faculty ?
First, I love art. I love to see a classic art and modern art as well. Second, I can do photography like you can see on my gallery here
I also can operate Adobe Photoshop quite well and thats what can I bring for DKV beside my drawing skill
So, what I have to do now is keep practicing my drawing skill. Thats it. So friends, keep supporting me for my drawing work, wish I can do better drawing skill soon.
