Let’s cook up a tasty burger! The first book series I illustrated, starring Hamburger Harriet, is now out on Amazon!

If you’re looking for a fun way to teach kids how to write better, then these books are for you. Stroll down Burger Boulevard or Pickle Plain Lane, and get to know Harriet’s friends, too!

My illustrations always start with the linework. If I can choose only one favorite step in making art, it's this. I guess, all those coloring books I had as a kid made a huge impact. The negative spaces that embody every page wait to be filled, and yet each page is beautiful as it is.

Some studies I did using wet media. I tried watercolor, “watery” gouache, and poster colour (the latter being my favorite among my limited supplies). I was proud of that last page. Haha

And oh, I made this watercolor sketchbook, too! :D

Found a fun way to show road photos. :D Here's my view from the back seat during our trip to Batangas, Philippines two weeks ago.

With so many sharing platforms available now, I wonder if my words can find their home anywhere in the internet.

It would be nice to have it all in one place. A single space where curious people can see both my works AND what I'm up to these days. No distractions. No algorithm to beat. No platform-hopping.

And... here we are!

I'm thinking this news feed will be a journal of some sort, which can range from a simple note to a blog post, where I can talk about what I'm working on, what I'm currently thinking, or things that have sparked my wonder and what-not.

It’s not meant to send new posts to your inbox yet (I have my Substack for that), nor is it meant to be reacted or commented to.

This might sound a bit counter-intuitive, but let me quote from Seth Werkheiser:

Now, when and where to buy a domain?
