Red Pockets
It was almost impossible to work in my home studio in the late afternoon because of the westerly sun, so I took a break and opened my red pockets that were collected during the CNY holiday. Looked at some of the new bill designs and noticed that Braille was incorporated, nice to see designs that […]

Cleanup
Today is traditionally the big cleanup day before Chinese New Year. I actually started doing some cleanup yesterday and just barely got my bedroom and studio cleaned up before dinner tonight. My family picked tonight to have our family dinner before CNY, I was feeling a bit annoyed the whole night because I never really […]

Red Pocket Design
Received a pack of red pocket envelops I helped design before Sunday Service this morning, I’m still overwhelmed with satisfaction looking at it now while writing this post. I’m really thankful for this opportunity to serve for the first time at the church I’ve been attending for more than 2 years. Received quite a few […]

Silent Night
It’s becoming my annual tradition to stay home and design a Christmas card on Silent Nights. It’s one of the rare times each year that I would dig out my watercolors and Indian Ink and re-live the time when I would work late nights to finish my cartooning assignments, those were some good times…

It’s nice seeing local artists’ creative use of ‘useless’ materials to make their wonderful installations. […]

Leaflet Design
Created vector graphics based on the previous hand-drawn illustrations, updated the leaflet design according to the change requests, and finally printed it off from my inkjet printer. Couldn’t keep my eyes off my creation, I guess that’s the feeling of satisfaction from your work, ‘love what you do’!

Illustrations
My friend referred me to a small freelance job to design an A-4 sized leaflet, I’m both excited and thankful for the opportunity. It must have been at least a few months since I indulged myself with indian ink and watercolors, some good times. There are times I imagined myself to be an illustrator, and […]

Turning Point
The 3 kids in the house had finally moved back to their renovated apartment last week, tranquility was once again experienced after ~2 months! Reclaimed my bedroom so I no longer had to sleep in my home studio, it’s nice to be able to physically separate the work and rest area once again. Had kept […]
