Ice Cream, Pizzas and Tacos



----------------
I wouldn't be surprised if I have created a similar comic strip in the past.  My father died a few years ago and I tend to ponder more about death; how everything will turn to dust one day and how everything will seem like a dream when we are all gone.

But while we are alive, we have to make the most out of it.  Love more, create more, share more.  Just live your best life so that at the end of it all, there will be no regrets.

The Zombies and I


My heart beated fast as I huddled in my closet, knowing the fate that awaited me downstairs.  About 10 zombies got into my house and I had no choice but to find a place to hide.  How would skinny ‘ole me survive this apocalypse?


As I leaned back I accidentally knocked down my baseball bat.  Surely the noise would attract those zombies?   But as I touch the cold metal, hope began to rise up my chest.  I WOULD NOT BE DEFEATED BY THOSE STINKY HALF-DEAD MONSTERS!!!


So I stood up, gripped the bat and opened the closet door.
And with tears in my eyes, I started to swing down the bat to a female zombie that looked remarkably like my mother, beside a zombie that looked like my father and a crawling baby zombie that looked like my baby brother.



-The End-

My BFF

I had a best friend named Lavender.
We ran, sang and played together all the time.


But as time pass by, Lavender grew up and doesn’t need me anymore.


And while I’m sad, I know I had to go back to the Imaginary Friends Land.

Disclaimer: This was inspired by a historical romance novel I was reading a while back.  I just scribbled this in my notebook so I remember (I am forever forgetting stories if I don't write it down right away), unfortunately I forgot to write down the title and author of the book.  Apologies for this.

And... I finally tried using markers for my illustrations.  I stumbled upon my sister's Faber-Castell's Colouring Pens (which she hasn't used for years) and I like how the art looks different.  Still prefer water colors though.

Me and the Tribe

I am the luckiest guy in the world.  When an opportunity to visit an indigenous tribe came up, I had to volunteer.  After all, I am an explorer and exploring is what we do.


Surprisingly, the tribe let me into their fold.  They danced and sang while they gave me the most scrumptious food.

And now they let me into a hot tub to wipe away the dust and grime on my face.

I am a very lucky guy indeed.

Me, Myself and I


Due to social media there are high standards in beauty nowadays and plastic surgery is almost the norm.  I say "go" to whatever makes you happy but there's something awesome about having features from people you love stamped literally in your face.  Let us be happy with what we have and appreciate our differences.

February Hand Lettering Postcards



These aren't exactly new material.  It was always on the back of my mind to post but never got to!

The first one was created using watercolors while the second one was created using Tombow Dual Brush pens.
