There are more artists nowadays using their real names online, but I was just remembering 15 years ago on DeviantArt when everyone had cool usernames like…”Artgerm” aka Stanley Lau.
It was like, can we come up with a cool name so that it’s memorable and represents our art. I miss those days.

Most of the time I just want a nicely written guide that I can follow. Clear steps, don’t fill it with side stories, just straight to the point. I grew up reading walkthroughs to get past game levels and I miss those!
Buuut I do love a quick video that shows exactly where to go and what do to

2024 was a year full of challenges, changes and new beginnings - it was chaotic and scary, but it also made me focus on what I love. I'm proud of my work this year, and I cannot wait to see what 2025 has in store for me!

Feels good to be home! Time to resume sharing some of my favorite illustrations. 'Things Left Behind' is another piece in my Frankenstein Reimagined series. Again I focused on a sense of loss and having been left behind.
