I don't know about you guys but "life without art is just eh".

I easily get lost into abstract paintings there's just something about these paintings: the swirl, splatters, and mix of colors, along with the mystery behind the artwork. I've always been a fan of art but lately I've been so much into abstract watercolor, oil, or acrylic paintings, they just always capture my attention because I love being in my own artsy state of mind. Lately, I just can't get enough of soft pastels especially the combination of dusty pink, sky blue, and hints of gold. Art inspires me in so many ways and I'm hoping to get back to painting again!

Do you guys have any favorite artists?

Hope you all are doing great! 

 I've been super busy lately but I managed to snap some pics from the weekend and this past Friday. I love checking out new cafes and I'm glad I found Makai Coffee in my hometown, Long Beach. This cafe has been around for a while but I finally got around to checking it out and it did not disappoint. I only tried their mocha and it was so smooth and yummy but I have to go back to try their food and pastries though, I totally recommend it if you're in the LBC area :) It was also nice to chase some sunsets by the beach we've been getting some of the most amazing sunsets ever especially after the rain! 

I also finally got a chance to do one of my pastime hobbies which is painting, I'm currently working on a landscape acrylic painting for my grandma from a picture I snapped in Palm Springs, let's hope it turns out well!

Happy Week!
