It was an honor to be invited as one of Comic Fiesta’s guest artist for 2018!  Here’s my contribution featuring their mascot Mi <3

I managed to experience such nice memories in 2018, I tried my best to document them! :D

Here’s a fresh painting out of 2019 :) Inspired by Loish.

I’ve recently started a Ko-Fi account and I’m offering some portrait sketches as a reward for supporting me on that platform. If you’d like me to draw you, your family, OCs, characters or anyone else; drop by my page :’)

I place smol humans on the same level as cats, they’re really cute and you’re pretty much blessed if they acknowledge you :’D

Some rough illustration drafts using A9 as my inspiration

[mehmehjin]

I wasn’t big on X Japan before I watched ‘We Are X’, a that movie truly changed me and opened my eyes to a new (Technically they are from an older era but yeah haha) world!! The big hair, over the top outfits and fierce makeup, just that whole aesthetic drew me in like crazy! I spiraled into a drawing frenzy!

There was a point in time not long ago where I was frustrated, desperately searching for new source of inspiration. In this rut; I turned to the people I interacted with on a daily basis; the friends, the classmates, the mentors I spoke with, they had in their own special way...showed me new perspectives. Each person, so very unique and different from each other; the more I studied them the more I was interested in capturing their “essence” :)

Comfort Food on Rainy Days

They say art is the reflection of the artist that creates it, if so I'd admit to having a severe case of identity crisis and disorganization. Reflecting upon the early quarter of 2018: alot of painting attempts but unfinished, most of my questions still left unanswered. Some severe grey days, some geeky days, some 'what was I thinking days' etc. Also went from "Tora my bae" to "A9? Did you mean ONLY Shou?"

Rewatching this season soon ish aha

Style searching. Finding the confidence to paint and play with colors. Finding a way to make lineart less rigid and quicker. Many things I would like to solve!
