Hope will be meaningful if you add "smile" in it. Keep on hoping, smile and let God do the rest - concept for my eighth doodle.
Then...do you still remember pop art-artwork that wide spreaded during Obama's first champaign? Still remember the only word attached there? Yes, that was "hope", that's why my 9th doodle concept inspired by the poster. At first I want to draw obama but here's the fun in this game, you can put any twist you want and let the observer guessing. I twisted with the headphone and give a stamp "Who?"
Finally here's the tenth quick doodle. When I stamped "who" for the ninth concept, I cannot think another words than "WHO" - World Health Organization. This time google help me once again, I try to quick doodle WHO's logo and voilaaa...my challenge is done, feel relieved.
Have you ever try to do such challenge to yourself like this? Or maybe another challenge with the different way such as try new ways to your office, try to analize how many white shirts inside your wardrobe, etc etc. Have you?
Well...me myself first familiar with that kind of "brainstorming" since I've read one book. One book that regularly change my point of view about being creative, so named - "Oh My Goodness: Buku Pintar Seorang Creative Junkies.” (“A Smart Book by Creative Junkies”). For you who haven't read it, I simply can say that this book will give us the way to "train" one's creativity.
Since being one of the loyal reader of CJ (yes I read this book more than 4 times within two years) I always trying to practice a little "training" for my brain. The previous challenge is also included. It helps to trigger our way of thinking to link one word, one thing, one case to another words, things and even solutions.
Another thing is, its cover approch the reader in a personal way. CJ's reader can easily customize the book's cover by adding some colors and drawing like I did. I put drawing of myself (with my ex bf) surrounded by "rockstars" starred in CJ's cover. And when i think about that day back then, maybe there's a little (or maybe huge :p) wishes inside my heart that I do wan't to be there also in the CJ's cover. Maybe that's the reason why I drew neither the objects I want nor anything else but myself. That just maybe until October last year when I received an email from Yoris Sebastian himself that he planned to features me in his upcoming extended version books! Wow...that was so...dreams come true!
And now here it is...me in the front page of CJ's updated version!
