🔥Rising like a phoenix this #winsday and starting my birth month with burning passion 🔥 This phoenix is not just my 5th nft drawing for the project but also my dedication to this platform, our wallets and our hopes that have risen from challenges last week. Another good news is that I have risen like a phoenix today coz I'm back to normal again after a day of taking the booster shot. The effect is so mild that I can still move and do simple tasks yesterday tho I move slowly…
My favorite Singaporean chocolate for a #throwback. 🍫😋 Yes #chocolateislife so it will always be included in my buy list everywhere I go. During our 2013 family trip to Singapore, I tried different varieties of their local chocolate, the Merlion chocolate. It's super delicious coz it's not too sweet and the blend is right. It doesn't melt easily too coz the chocolate is thick. The ones covered in paper are chocolate bars while the one at the box is a merlion shaped…
Boss Marky shows us how to have a relaxing Friyay 😎 Marky never fails to make us smile especially with that look. What a life. He sleeps in rooms and there are times that he feels cold when it's airconditioned. They often see him sleep in a doormat each time he wants to warm himself so my niece bought him a bed for dogs. Boss Marky is so happy and comfy with his cute bed. He loves sleeping there. Since he loves sleeping under someone's bed, they put his bed there. He…
It's a #caturday of brotherly love. 😺❤️ One time, I saw these catto brothers, Abs and Azul relaxing in front of our wall. I was able to capture this brotherly love. They look like humans here. They started to sit there then I saw big bro Abs starting to put his arm on his lil bro's shoulder like male humans do to their little brothers. They are five siblings and they get along well. They don't even fight over food. They also have their bonding moments like this one I've…
A funny karma story to remember this Sunday funday 😁 I had a vacation in our relative's place (mom's brother) in Roxas City, Capiz way back 2015. I stayed there with my mom and nieces. This beach shore is one of the places we've been. We saw a stall selling street foods so we hangout and ate there. When we went home, I heard that my sister took my nephews to a resort while we are on a vacation then that's the time my eldest nephew thought of laughing at us when we go home…
It's #Monslay! Time to slay the Monday blues and start the week in a colorful way with this cute creature. 🦄 This is my 6th drawing. I'm halfway to completing all 12 drawings for the nft project. This is my last mythical creature for this set of drawings. I came up with the idea of drawing a kawaii (cute) style unicorn coz I recall that it was so popular last year so I thought of doing something like this for a change so I can add more variety to my works. So here's…
When in a buffet restaurant 😋🍽️ I was able to keep these photos from way back 2016 when my sister celebrated her birthday. This is Dad's buffet restaurant. They offer international cuisine. You just move around and choose what to put on your plate. Here are the foods I ate. First photo is the main dish I chose to eat. I ate 2 kinds of fried rice, tender pork, maki, sushi, and tempura. For the 2nd plate (2nd photo), I had 2 plates of snacks. These snacks are ziti carbonara,…
I dreamed about mom last night. She's still a fashionista even in dreams. In my dream, she just had her new hair dye. It's a transition from chestnut brown to violet. Mom is fond of hair dye with a mixture of two colors or transitioning colors when she was alive. Her fashion sense still shows in my dreams. I woke up from the dream and recalled her fashion sense so I'm dedicating today's post to my mom. Before she passed away, she left me with this bright yellow bag along…
My Singapore trip memory for today's #throwback 🇸🇬 This keychain is one of the souvenirs I was able to keep since our 2013 Singapore trip. I'm preserving it so I'm just keeping it sealed like this. I'm glad that it survived for 9 years now and the steel is not rusty up to this day. I bought this from Bugis shopping district. It's the best place to shop in Singapore coz it's the place with the most affordable goods and they offer a lot of variety there such as foods, fashion…
From a cutie Monday to an action packed Friyay. 🥋💪 Last Monday, I shared a cute unicorn to start the week and now I'm finishing the weekday strong with this energetic guy. This is my 7th nft drawing for the project I am in. I've been fond of rewatching 90's anime lately while I'm working on my previous drawings. One of the series I have rewatch is street fighter so I came up with the idea to draw a martial artist with a cool fighting pose. This drawing is the result. I…
Abs got inspired from the muscular guy I posted yesterday so he wants to spend this #Caturday flexing at least half of his abs. 😸 This cat is the second son among the siblings. He's the only one who always shows his abs and this is how I cane up with his name. You rarely see him sit. He loves to lie down showing some abs. This is one of the moments I captured when I paid a visit to my family. If you remember our sexy cat, he's the one closest to Abs. Will show more next…
This is Caleb making himself a role model of a relaxing Sunday funday. 🐰 He may not be with us anymore but he will always be one of my cutie models. This photo shows how rabbits relax. I read an information that when rabbits sit in this position, it means they are relaxed and at ease with their current environment. Being a prey animal, it is in their instinct to be always on high guard and they rarely relax. I'm so glad to see him relax like this often. This means that he's…
A new week starts this #Monslay. Marky slays it with cuteness as he tries to stay awake. This moment makes me smile. I remember we were at my dad's room while opening our Christmas presents. Marky is with us enjoying the airconditioned room. I saw him getting sleepy but he's restraining himself from sleeping. 😁 He can be that stubborn sometimes coz he wants to stay awake and watch what we are doing. Time to stay awake with Marky and slay the week with grace and energy. 💪
One thing I like on a beach is the space for volleyball. I may not know how to play it that much but I appreciate it when a beach resort has a facility for sports. You get some exercise from both swimming and volleyball. It also provides more choices for activities than just being limited to swimming. This net can also be used for badminton. I actually prefer it coz I can play it better than volleyball. This resort is in Bolinao, Pangasinan. The photo was taken way back 2018…
A continuation of my post yesterday. This is still in Pangasinan. It's the rocky part of the beach this time. The scenery is beautiful. The transition of colors from a slight green to blue is what I love in water. I also love how clean it is. Anyone would enjoy bathing and sight seeing there. I would also love to get an idea from this one and apply it on my drawing. It will definitely be a nice background. This one stirs my imagination. I'll see if I can apply it in one of…
My sister shared another cafe she tried with my nieces. This is Nuella's cafe located in Marilao Bulacan. First photo is the ambiance of the cafe. It's spacious and cozy there and everything looks neat. Very pleasing to the eyes and they felt comfortable there. Among the foods they tried are vegetable salad, chicken nuggets with fried rice and the top choices which I shared in the 2nd to 4th photos. These are fried calamari, carbonara with butter toast and fries with chicken…
A cute and funny Friyay to everyone 🐶 It's the last day of work for this week and this furbaby is now inviting us to take a rest. 😄 To those who know Loki and Muffin, this is one of their male puppies. We call him Bear coz he kinda looks like one. We noticed that sleeping in this position is his hobby. He loves doing this at the edge of the cage. It must be comfortable for him. I'll have an update about him on Sunday when I visit my family. I'll be joining bear in his…
A motherly love for #Caturday 😺 Misha, the receptionist catto here in my apartment gave birth to 3 cute kittens and last night, I saw her breastfeeding her babies so here's the moment I captured. See the one looking at the camera? That kitty is amazing. Kittens are usually scared of people and they just stick to their moms but this one is different. After taking the photo, it just approached me. I was so happy to see a new born kitten being friendly to people so I pet it…
Let's get to the exciting part this #Monslay 🌟 Starting the week with the fierce Medusa means starting my NFT week here as well. Spice NFT will have its launching this 27th of June. Saving the best for the last, I'll be sharing my last 5 drawings for Spice project for the whole week. This Medusa is my 8th drawing. I enjoy drawing her coz I love the fierce and devilish look. Looking at her evil smile alone made me feel excited while I draw her and I'm very happy with the…
I choose something handsome, brave and honorable this #Chooseday 🗡️ From yesterday's fierce Medusa to a manly warrior. Clearly a shift from an evil theme to something historical. Here's my 9th drawing for Spice nft. I was thinking of a samurai that time and this is the pose I have chosen among the references I saw. With this pose, I imagine that it's like a battle at the roof so I searched for historical japanese structures that focus on the roof. I saw a reference for that…
Keep calm and stay pretty like a fairy this #Winsday. ✨ Take a short break and breathe in the fantasy world this hump day. From something fierce and something brave to a very calm fairy. Another shift in theme to provide more variety. This is my 10th drawing for Spice NFT. I'm very thankful for doing this art. It made me discover that there are nature themed brushes that are available in the software I am using. It's my first time exploring them since I was so busy. I…
Rise and shine with the fierce yet elegant red angel. 😇✨ This is my 11th drawing for Spice NFT. The most exciting part has started. I have 3 drawings I enjoyed most. One is Medusa and second one is this red angel. I always love to draw something devilish, fierce and badass. I was thinking of drawing a warrior angel. I already have her hairstyle in mind when I saw the pose in the reference I picked so I came up with the idea that fierce and elegant look will suit her. Now…
Finishing this batch of drawings strong with a badass angel of light. 💪😁 This is my last piece to complete all my 12 entries for the Spice NFT project. This angel is personally one of my top 3 favorites along with Medusa and the red angel I shared yesterday coz they are the ones I enjoyed drawing the most. As I conceptualize this male angel, I have the black, gold and bronze combinations in mind. So I came up with the idea to make him an angel of light since yellow powers…

It's never too late to catch up for yesterday's #caturday says this catto brothers, Sexy cat and Abs. They love sleeping together. Among the 5 siblings, these two are the closest to each other. I often see them sleep on this chair in the afternoon. After a showcase of muscles and abs from the drawing I shared recently, Abs became more unstoppable in flexing his abs even in his sleep. 😸 It's his time to shine with the support of his big bro sexy cat who just woke up from his…
Time to change the nib of my digital pen. Been drawing non-stop for a couple of months especially the week before the deadline of submission for the nft drawings. The nib of my pen got worn out and it feels uncomfortable drawing with the uneven tip, as you can see in the photo. I replaced it with the new one since spare parts are provided when I bought the drawing tablet. Now it feels comfortable to draw with this newly replaced nib. Getting ready to draw another set of 12…
Calling out my fellow artists 🎨 This set of brushes is part of my preparation after replacing the nib of my pen and I want to share it. Photoshop brushes can be imported in Krita. It might also be compatible with the software you are using. Are you tired of spending too much time on redundant drawing? Redundant drawing not only takes too much time but also drains your energy. I wish I knew about these brushes and explored on them earlier. I watched tutorials on how to make…
A winning improvement is waving this #Winsday and I'm willing to share these brushes to my fellow artists. 🎨 After importing Photoshop brushes to my drawing software (Krita), I did my testing. I picked a tree brush for this. It really is very convenient and this is definitely time efficient as it cuts a lot of redundancies in drawing. I remember a pro artist saying that no one will pay you for drawing every single leaf in your background which I totally agree. These brushes…
Milk Tea Dose Cafe🧋 Before I celebrate my special day, I had an unexpected reunion with my childhood friends in our neighborhood yesterday. Since most of us happened to take a few days of break from hustling and we're available yesterday, we decided to have a reunion. We were so busy catching up that I forgot to take pictures of the food. We ordered takoyaki, nachos with fries, coffee and milk tea. This is the cheapest cafe I have tried so far. The coffee costs only $1. The…
