I Didn't MADE It, Yet I'm Still Maningning

I'm just dropping by to inform those who are wondering about Red Threading that it didn't get the special award I was hoping for and I was the most stupidest artist present in the awarding ceremony. I have not been earning enough, still I passed up on the opportunity of selling it to the event's guest of honor. I just stood behind her as she was telling another lady about how much she wanted my artwork. Maybe I was too surprised to see them head directly to my artwork when the exhibit opened. Or maybe it was just a hallucination that I made up. I wish it was the latter. The last thing I heard of their conversation, GOH: "but I really want this artwork" Lady:"maybe there's a reason why he's not selling it." The reason: I'm the most stupidest artist there is.

On more hopeful events, my artwork Phosphenes was selected as one of the 12 semi-finalists in this year's Maningning Miclat Art Competition. It is now on display at Art Circle Gallery, 4th Floor Shangrila Plaza Mall. I just hope GOH drops by the exhibit.


PS. GOH bought the artwork next to mine for 30 grand.:(
