Cupcake Buddies.


Good morning my dearest friends. As you are going about your morning routines like perhaps watching or reading the news, or drinking your coffee, or eating your breakfast, or driving to work, you realized that you've been tagged by me on facebook and you're wondering, hmmm... what is going on??? SURPRISEEEEEEE... You've been made into cartoon cupcakes by me!!!! Taa daaaa!!! I was highly inspired by the little mini cupcakes of us that I made for Stevie's birthday card and decided to personalized all of you into these little adorable mini bites. I hope that these little yumminess brings a little sunshine into your morning or day or whenever you finally have a chance to see this. Sooo, go ahead, check yourself out! I'm pretty sure you can guess which cupcake is you!

Happy Thursday, my loves.

Mister Typefaces







Let me introduce you to the men in my life right now, Mr. Typefaces. When i imagined a typeface being a person, i imagined that they're being sorta like these guys above. Mr. Century Old Style is your regular hard working American dude in a grey button up shirt with crossing tie. He is a little uptight because well... he is a very hard worker. His job in finance is a little too demanding and harsh sometimes. But Mr. Old Style here enjoys good beers and appreciates the culinary art. Don't judge him too harshly... because under that heavy mustache, he has the most sweetest smile.

Mr.Baskerville here is from Birmingham, England. A very charming chap with beautiful english accent. Mr. Baskerville loves tea in the afternoon and he fancy dance parties in his finest english tall hat and suit. And when he dance, oohh, he will swoon the ladies.

Last, Monsieur Didot is french (well, duhhh..) Monsieur Didot is an artist who paints and recite poem and sometimes sings his poems to all the beautiful ladies that passes him by. Be careful now, with his charming french accents and free spirited mind, he can easily steals your heart and perhaps run away with it.

How do we like our bachelors?? They will soon be available in prints and perhaps tshirts and tote bags on my etsy page very soon. Whoops... sorry, my store is currently still need some work but please stay tuned. More exciting stuff is coming soon :)

Happy Tuesday.

fontstache



I quit my job about a month ago to pursue my dream to be an independent illustrator. It's been quite a slow month but I am very excited about the projects that I have been working on. Working from home means I can go for an hour of jogging, blasting music out loud, dancing around the house like no one cares, learning how to cook but only to realize that i've been cooking the same thing everyday, bouncing creative ideas with fellow artists or organizing my font book and make a fontstache out of it :) One of the biggest benefit working for myself is the fact that I can choose which project I want to work on and totally make something creative and awesome looking. The goal is I want to make art that will melt your heart and put a smile on your face. So, please stay tuned! Awesome illustrations are on their way :)
