Tried out woodcarving and it was fun!! Really challenging with the fine detail tho. Ended up with a rather unfortunately phallic-looking hibiscus after accidentally chipping away the second row of flower bits 🙃

I watched 12 Angry Men not knowing what to expect and hot damn, it was absolutely rivetting. Not a single moment felt draggy, the pacing and build up of tension was perfection. What an incredible study of character, each of these unnamed men were such distinct personalities!

Here's the progression reel of how this piece took me 4 years; just a lethal combination of artblock, procrastination, and indecision. But it's also pretty satisfying to see how it all came together in the end.

I went through horrible artblock (anim block?) for years and finally mustered the will to blaze through most of it in the past 2 months. It's honestly a relief to be done with this! This piece has evolved a ton since it first started.

Finally, new animation!
I started this almost 4(!!) years ago to practice animating on 2s & get more comfortable animating hands. This piece has taken so long that I don't know if I've leveled up, but finishing it matters more than perfection.

Been doing some online life drawing with Larian folks and it's really nice to be drawing again after such a long time!

Yesterday I spent a little less time brainrot doom scrolling and a little more time crafting 🎶

Had 4 lovely hours of weekend meditation 💆 came out of the zone with a sore neck, dehydration, and a new display to collect dust ✨

I wish this was just a bad dream; my puppo passed away suddenly, much too soon. I hope to see him again in my dreams, larger than life and thrice as bouncy.

I opened a fortune cookie today and it's not a fortune, but it's a 100% correct description of me. Why don't these things give proper fortune messages though...

Bunana brud 🍞🍌I bake like on average once every 4 years and this showed in the results 🤡🌚 It's not bad but not the best either lol.

Today's my birthday and a good time to reflect on all the little wins in 2024. I'm pretty happy with what I've done this year in my personal life even though I did not develop much career-wise. I hope next year I'll be able to turn the non-achievements into more little wins :)

I thought I've done enough damage to my wallet with all the conventions I've attended this year, but my monkey brain demands more dopamine 🐒💥
KL Art Book Fair was a lovely little event, tons of creativity and uniqueness in spades. The event catalogue is a newspaper, how cool is that?!

Decided to torture my digestive system with painfully delicious ayam geprek and ambitiously went 1 spice level higher than regular. Let's see if I start fighting for my life tonight. (I'm having equally yummy soybean soft serve now to quench the fire🍦)

I planned my Tokyo trip around the convention weekend and attended both Design Festa and Comitia. It was a wonderful experience and I'd love to do it again, the level of talent and artistry here is just insane! I spent so much money and I'd gladly do it all over again 🥹
