New hand-artwork

Salam ciput,
I was not in any intention or planning to do any artwork today. Just out of nowhere, when my officemate came to my place and asked if I've updated anything on my Flickr. So, I remembered about my last hand-drawing that I did during my division trip to Bandung-Jakarta. It was his potret that I drew in a shaking bus travelling towards Bandung. I still remembered, the journey was so boring as the bus moved soooo slowy because of a very unexpected traffic jam. So just to kill time, I took out my notebook and started drawing. It was not a good one because of the bus condition that was sooo un-steady. Then, because of a lousy drawing, I re-drew another one at my very office. You can see the difference..

The first one is the one that I drew in a moving bus. Pretty scary...

Finally found my Wacom Bamboo driver

I haven't been drawing for almost half a year already since I re-formated and re-installed my Windows on my notebook. The last time I've ever remembered using the notebook before the formating; it was soooo slow and it was such an agonising experience to wait for the OS to respond for every single click I made. That was the main reason why I decided to re-format everything and thinking that I can start new with my notebook. Things were not as sweet as I plan because when I wanted to re-install everything, I realise I could not find the driver for my Wacom Bamboo. So the last resort I did was to download it from the official Wacom website. However, it turned out that the driver was not suitable with my equipment; funny enough because it clearly stated that it was specifically for my Bamboo Fun because I downloaded into my notebook. In the end after re-installing several times and endless disappointment with the result, I abandoned my Bamboo, and so with my hand drawing hobby.

Last Sunday, when I was clearing the room, I accidentally found my Wacom Bamboo installation CD lying untouched somewhere in my room. The CD contains the driver that I need to install my artwork Bamboo pen. So today, early morning at my office, I fixed my Bamboo artpen and started to express myself through a masterpiece. It's a girl with my own creative hand drawing body. Anyway, it's supposed to be a human-lady-caricature.
