Climate Change and a White Horse

Summer is here and so are two of my new editorial illustrations for Total Girl Philippines’ March issue!

I illustrated a drought scene for a climate change article. I have to say, this is one of my favorite works I did for Total Girl.

And here’s the “Totally Embarrassing” illustration.

Aside from the dragon I drew for last year’s March issue, this is the only animal illustration I have done for the magazine.

And here’s the other one I drew for an article.

This illustration was a bit of a challenge, since I had to turn it into a puzzle. I had fun working on it though! I’ll try posting my work-in-progress some other time.

I haven’t painted for quite a while. I was browsing through art blogs the other day, I got inspired and felt like painting. It was time to finally pick up my paintbrushes and do a quick project.

Whenever I come across an inspiring quote that I really like, I write it down on my tiny sketchbook. I tried painting one of those quotes and here it is!

Do What You Love and Tomorrow Will Pay the Rent

For this month’s “Totally Embarrassing” story from Total Girl Philippines, I had to illustrate a girl’s face smashed against a glass wall. This was one of the most challenging faces I had to draw and I’m pretty happy with how it turned out!
