Tiktok/Reels kids Day6: Thanks to @ninamataart who saw a video of this happy but very sleepy baby. This cutie couldn't keep her eyes open although she did try hard to see her momma. Oh, the cheeks! The whole video is by @bobaepapa.

TikTok Kids Day 3: Here's an illustration based on the inspiring video by @chikastagram_0425 first-time kickflip. I wanted to show the flipping action in my drawing. While I know nothing of skateboarding,I was moved.
This kid is so cool and amazing!

A video popped up into my reels of the parents trying to take a picture of their twins wearing their new coats. It was hilarious! Like trying to herd cats. Have you seen it?

Inspired by tiktok account Taylor Negley.

Thank you, @studiohoffmann.bsky.social for having me at your Gab N' Doodle! So fun! Here's the finished piece of a scene of kids caroling in the Philippines. I always admire the ingenuity in the makeshift instruments m ade of bottles, bottlecaps, and cans. Timed it with #KidlitArtPostcard post!

I've got plenty to be thankful for. These past few years have opened doors for me and met so many people and grateful I get to do what I've always dreamed of..to draw. Know that I am doing a parade in my heart to celebrate all of you good folks in my life. I wish you many blessings.

An old gift from a good friend provides distraction and self-reflection. Doodling is helping me relax; A no-pressure-just-draw activity. It's also like a visual journal so maybe 1 day, it will help me reminisce.
