My paintings from I:INDIVIDUALITY Collection, I want to share them all with you guys finally!

Dear all,

I always keep my oil painter life very private.

In 2014, I want to make a change. 

I am so grateful I had my first ever oil painting exhibition "I:INDIVIDUALITY" held in Tokyo on last September. (http://www.joey-ma.com/2013/09/joey-ma-presents-iindividuality-first.html) It was my greatest achievement for 2013 because I never thought I could have my own exhibition. The reason is that because I never share or talk to people about my oil painter side. Painting is a super private thing for me. It is the only way that I can have full on inner peace in my soul. As I getting older, I want to explore more new things and after been painting for more than 10 years privately, I've decided it's time to show the world what I can offer besides fashion. I've never posted any paintings on my blog at all, and for the first post of 2014, I am ready to share with you guys of what my true passion is. 

畫油畫是我一生中唯一能安靜我心靈的事情。 我從來沒有想過要和別人分享這件事情， 所以能夠開到畫展真的是很不可思議。 我也從來沒有在我的部落格發過我的油畫照片。

2014年的第一篇文章， 我決定要打開我的心房和大家分享能夠讓我得到真正快樂的事情 - 畫油畫。

Love always,
Joey

Joey Ma's favorite looks for 2013!

Dear all,

I usually never go through my posts. However, for some reasons, the statistic of my blog has been showing that there are many hits of  this post recently, Joey Ma's favorite looks for 2011, which I posted two years ago. I just feel a bit weird... wondering who's checking out this post haha. Anyway, that's why I am going to post some of my favorite looks of myself in 2013. I have to say sometimes I just wonder how can I come up with these creative styling and outfits for myself. I don't go through my posts because I focus on styling for other people now and make them happy, but I have to say I really do dress so crazy sometimes haha. Styling myself is a way of expressing myself into an art form, but styling for other people bring me a lot of satisfaction that I never had before, I am really proud to say that being a stylist is one of my real jobs now.

Sorry, I hope it didn't take too long to load up the photos. It is just so hard to choose the favorite ones! Art is a subjective thing and so as fashion, feel free to let me know which ones are your favorite ones too hehe! Once again, I want to say... please don't ever limit yourself to a certain kind of style! Try to explore different kind of styles all the time! Just look at my photos, I really don't have a particular style at all! I wear whatever I think it is beautiful and comfortable. I truly hope can inspire some of you guys through my photos and styling. Thank you so much again for all your loves and supports. My blog is almost 4 years old, and it brings me so many great experiences that I would treasure for the rest of my life. I am so grateful about everything.

Love always,
Joey
