I wanted to watch something while snacking, so I chose the film Caramelo on Netflix (it had a cute brown dog on the thumbnail). How tf was I supposed to know it would make me ugly cry...??

A quick digital commission from a fellow #FoTS, to be published as an ad for their choir's 60th Anniversary commemorative publication. The brief: "A cat and a dog singing the song of their people". 😄🎶

I'm available for commissions. Message me for inquiries!

For my overseas friends and mutuals who'd like to send donations to help all those affected by the earthquake in Cebu, Philippines a couple of days ago. Maraming Salamat. 🙏

A couple of special request birthday presents for my August and September besties. Because lifelong friends just get one another's (dark) humor so easily! 😅❤️

They're now in The Netherlands, Germany, & America!

This sucks, considering that most of my clients are from the US. And I was so excited to send holiday mail early! 😩

Hopefully, this shitstorm gets resolved soon. And US-based folks, you can still commission me for digital art! 🙏

Meet the 3x4" bookmark version of Bean Sprout!
Last month, I offered handdrawn bookmarks for those who will donate $25> to the cancer recovery fund of a former client, the retired therapy dog Gus. Bean is a family member of @married2thelob.bsky.social
a #FoTS who kindly donated. 🤎

You know you've reached A Certain Age when you realize you now own a collection of store rewards cards as well as a vast supply of reusable eco bags... 😬😅

My previous hair conditioner smells like Sprite/Skittles, and the new one I'm using now smells like one of my childhood meds Aspilet 😅

Not a "let's have a drink sometime" kind of person.

Meet Max, an adorable Retriever with Boss of the House energy. 😄

Earlier this year, I offered my illustration service as a prize for a fundraising raffle that benefits the English Football club Stowmarket Town FC, & Max is the pet of the winner.

Mad Men.
Take away all the GOAT candidates: The Wire, Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, and Lost.

What’s the best show outside of that group?

Throwback to 2006, when I had an idea to make a comic strip about a sharp-witted, Football-crazy English boy named Johnny with a teddy bear called Graham. 😅
Not sure why I didn't pursue the idea, but finding these sandwiched in a book after 19 yrs brought back a lot of fond memories! ⚽❤️

The horrors persist, and so I craft.

FAO #dogsky! Retired therapy dog Gus & family commissioned & supported my art when I was starting out, and for that, I'll always be grateful.

Now that Gus needs help with his medical battle & recovery, I'm offering a custom handdrawn pet bookmark for every $25 donation. 🤎🙏

A question for fellow #F1 fans: During their prime, which driver will you choose--Sebastian Vettel or Max Verstappen?
Feel free to expound. 🙂

It's honestly endearing how older people gravitate towards me and tell me things. Apparently, they find my vibe trustworthy. 😌

Believe it or not, I'm actually watching the F1 race live tonight. 🤭 #AustriaGP
