[Notice: flashing images!] I wandered around San Francisco’s Chinatown this past week with tiny horse silhouettes to make this labor of love stopmotion. 🐎🏮 Happy Lunar New Year and Year of the Horse everyone! 🥰🧧 May the new year bring you lots of happiness and fortune. ❤️

Some behind-the-scenes: - Some aunties saw me taking photos and invited me to their Chinese New Year celebration next weekend. 😆 - I tried not to get in the way of any stalls or customers, so I didn’t take many photos inside the various markets or bakeries (although I did get a pineapple bun and tangerines while I stopped by)! - I texted Cuddly Potatoes to see if she had time to help me cut out horses on her die-cut machine, and she immediately said yes. ❤️ - I used tape on my phone screen to line up the paper in the same spot every time! I can finally remove it now! 🤣

It’s not like my usual comics, but this time, I just wanted to make art for art’s sake! ¨̮ ♡ I used to make stopmotions a lot years ago, and it was really satisfying to see this one come together. I hope you enjoy!

I know everyone has their own timeline but I feel like everybody else has their life figured out well, while I stuck, had no progress, so far behind them. everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind (failing in life) 🤍🏳️

It can be frustrating when life seems like an endless cycle of chores. But it's also an infinite source of happiness and wonder! I get what it's like to resent chores, but I'm trying to accept them a little more as a part of having a good life, which for me includes a clean space and home-cooked food.
