My arting year ain't complete if I don't have an entry for Christmas Day. Especially if it doesn't feature the star of Filipino Christmas Decorations: the Parol.

I sort of slacked off on this project due to prioritizing commissions and the new comic series. Took like three weeks of hiatus to until now. I always want to draw my favorite decor being the Parol because it always holds a special place in my heart. I've always worked on making lots of parols throughout the years, since 2011, and it has been our seasonal business too. And I really just love the ornament for many reasons.

While there may be other Pokémon fitting to model with the shiny stars, still, my bias just wants to stick Shinx and Luxio in the picture. Almost joked named them Crispin and Basilio even.

Shinx and Luxio belongs to (c)Pokémon.

Anyway, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and para sa mga Pinoy, Maligayang Pasko po.

It's Christmas Eve morning where I am, so let me share Part 1 of Disney's "From Our Family to Yours" Christmas trilogy. In 2020, Disney released this short film about a Filipino American lola (grandma) and her apó (grandchild) continuing the tradition of building a parol (a star-shaped lantern) in their new home in the U.S. I shall share the next parts in the coming days. Merry Christmas! Maligayang Pasko! ᜋᜎᜒᜄᜌᜅ᜔ ᜉᜐ᜔ᜃᜓ᜶ ¡Feliz Navidad! 💝🌟🇵🇭

"Paskong Pinoy"

Christmas in the Philippines it’s like the ultimate holiday season here. Did you know we have one of the longest Christmas seasons in the world? People start celebrating as early as September, sometimes even August, with lights, music, and decorations everywhere. December is the peak, of course, but the festive spirit actually stretches until the first week of January. For me, it’s amazing how this holiday brings everyone together for family, food, and traditions, making it truly special.

The Joy of Simbang Gabi

Okay, waking up at 4 am for Simbang Gabi is kinda painful. But the streets lit up with parols make it so magical. For those who don’t know, Simbang Gabi is a 9 day dawn Mass dedicated to the Virgin Mary, and it started in the 16th century so even farmers and fishermen could attend early in the morning. After Mass, I usually grab bibingka or purple puto bumbong from the vendors outside! People say if you finish all 9 Masses, your wish comes true, which makes the whole experience even more exciting.

What is Noche Buena for Filipinos?

Now, Noche Buena is my absolute favorite part of Christmas. The term literally means “Good Night,” but for me it’s all about family, love, and togetherness. Midnight feast with everyone laughing, sharing stories, and enjoying roasted ham, desserts, etc, the best. This tradition shows how Filipinos celebrate not just food, but gratitude, joy, and family bonds.
