Bahay Kubo and Bahay Condo...

Ever heard of the Filipino folk song "Bahay Kubo" (Nipa Hut)?  It is a charming song about a little nipa hut surrounded with heaps of vegetable varieties.

On my Facebook wall, a friend of mine posted an updated version known as "Bahay Condo" (Condominium House).  I found it very hilarious.  It goes like this:

bahay Condo kahit munti ♪  
ang gadgets doon ay sari sari ♪ 
flat screen na TV, blu-ray DVD, 
ipod, Ipad, Iphone ♪
♪ Laptop na malaki, Laptop na maliit,
at saka meron pa portable MP3 ♪
♪Digicam,Videocam, Wi-Fi at HD, ♪
♪ sa paligid ligid ay puno ng . . . Chargeeeerrrrrr ♪♪


(Condominium house, even if it is small,
There are a variety of gadgets.
Flat screen TV, Blu-ray DVD,
iPod, iPad, iPhone,
Large laptop, mini laptop,
and also a Portable MP3,
Digicam, Videocam, Wi-Fi, and HD,
and all around, it is full of chargers.)

My, my... the signs of the times!  :-)

Speaking of Bahay Kubo, I sell a full-color picture book of this amusing melody.  I always wanted to buy a picture book of Bahay Kubo with each vegetable illustrated and the English names of the vegetables named in Tagalog.  Unfortunately, I didn't find one.  Fortunately, I was able to do my homework and produced a lovely picture book using my research, paintings, and editing with the help of computer software.


You are invited to buy my book at

It is the perfect gift for children, the young at heart, and you too.  This book is written in Tagalog with English translation.  If you have plans to give gift baskets of 17 different kinds of tropical vegetables each, I recommend you to stock up copies of my Bahay Kubo books (each bearing 17 different kinds of tropical vegetables) for gift giving opportunities.  They last the longest time compared to stocking up fresh produce. (Hint-hint, nudge-nudge :-)

Featured Art: "Kindhearted Kangaroo" (2006)

 
 
This season, I am featuring this crayon art.  Now available as art prints, greeting cards, and t-shirts-- for him, her, kids, and babies.  
 

It is a hand-drawn crayon art of a kangaroo.  I was in the mood to draw a kangaroo with a kind, friendly face.  This reminds me of a Danish quote: "The road to a friend's house is never long."

I encourage you to shop for your family, friends, or yourself.  (Buy four (4) T-shirts and get FREE SHIPPING!)
 
I appreciate your feedback and interest in my work.  Thank you for your support.

DL Thank You cards & Note cards





Yes, these are thank you cards, and blank note cards.  These cards are lovely to send all-year round.  With these cards, you may greet a clever pre-written thank you, or write any greeting that suits any occasion.

Each motif is sold as singles, packs of 10's, or packs of 20's.  Envelopes are included with each card.  It is a bargain to buy the cards in multiple packs.  Singles may be appropriate if you only want to buy one thank you card set (one card + one envelope).  Note cards are sold as multiple packs.

You may click the picture you want, and it will lead you to the online store where you can browse and purchase.  If any picture doesn't link you to the store, perhaps clicking the links listed below might help:

This was for a book club in a public library.  I was motivated to write a book review in 2009.    If inspired, I would write more book reviews. :-)

Saints In Toyland (inspired by The Velveteen Rabbit)

I had thoughts inspired by THE VELVETEEN RABBIT (click here to read)-- a storybook written by Margery Williams Bianco.  My thoughts led me into composing a poem titled SAINTS IN TOYLAND (click here to read).

In writing "Saints In Toyland," it has been one of my experiences where words were overflowing which demanded to be written down.  This was something that would not be procrastinated.  My, my...

Though I received a few, I am grateful of the positive words from those who posted regarding my poem.  I may not win a prize from the competition I entered for this poem.  But, I won positive comments from appreciative readers.  This feels good to know.  Thank you so much.

Featured Art: "Elephant Journey" (2006)

 
This season, I am featuring this crayon art.  Soon to be available as art prints, greeting cards, and shirts-- for him, her, kids, and babies.  Stay tuned, for I will post the links of these online stores. On the right column of this blog is my "Dominique Liongson (visual artist)" Facebook fan page.  I will post  the links there.  I will also make this image into a clickable link to the site that sells these products.

It is a hand-drawn crayon art of an elephant.  I chose to draw this in an art course.  It reminds me of a quote that goes: "The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." 

I appreciate your feedback and interest in my work.  Thank you for your support.

Origami Memories...


After constant practice of this origami, it feels good to know that I can make a paper box whenever I need one.  It is handy to make one to put things in one place; a neat place to put small rubbish before throwing the rest to the bin; and other creative uses for a paper box.

I remember one of my days as a Teacher's Aide.  There was a school boy whose coins are scattered in the large compartment of his desk.  Without skipping a beat, I used scrap paper and made a paper box (just like the video). I helped him put all his cash in the box.  The next time I was in the same class, the same boy took out the paper box (that I made for him) from inside his desk.  He told me that he still kept my box with his money in it.  I was pleased that he kept my box, and let it stay useful.

I feel glad I was resourceful to help him tidy his cluttered loose change.

To vinagurl, thank you for posting this video on YouTube.  Your video is clear, simple, and done in less than 3 minutes.  Good job!

My Valentine Month wish for you:


This is my Valentine wish for you.  Ever wondered what the logo on the center means?  Ask me, and I will email it to you.  Otherwise it will lose it's mysterious value.  Hehehe...

Featured Art: "Cat & Dog Cuddle" (2001)

 

This season, I am featuring this crayon art.  Soon to be available as art prints, greeting cards, and shirts-- for him, her, kids, and babies.  Stay tuned, for I will post the links of these online stores. On the right column of this blog is my "Dominique Liongson (visual artist)" Facebook fan page.  I will post  the links there.

It is a hand-drawn crayon art of a cat and dog cuddling.  It is quite surprising that a cat and a dog can get along very well.  My friend took a picture of his cat and dog posing this way.  I was inspired to draw this picture based on his photo.

I appreciate your feedback and interest in my work.  Thank you for your support.
