hot pot

One of Sir Charles's favorite food is hot pot. I forgot to take picture of us eating it but I took picture of what I drew~

We bought a portable stove just to have hot pot over the weekends. Boiling that water for very long time fogs up our windows. So I drew a little picture~

best ketchup

I just had the BEST ketchup!!
Celine shared her homemade ketchup with me. I wanted to use this ketchup perfect as possible so I decided to make fried chicken and homemade baked fries! The ketchup was so good that sir Charles and I were digging in the ketchup. We finished the entire jar~

Thanks Celine! It was delicious!!!

my very first website

This is a layout I did for my very first website. It's back in the time when FrontPage was my favorite web design software and used Geocities that has closed down few months ago.
I still remember when I made this, I ran into trouble of trying to figure out how to get rid of the blue border line when you have linked image. Took me a while to understand how precise you have to be with html. I look back at this and this site is just a one large image with 5 masked link using hotspot tool with colored background! How simple is that!

"KiDDy Factory" was my old website name I used to use. I still use this for user name for other places and name of my illustration series in my website. I decided this name to remind myself while you grow old with art, never to forget the heart you had for art when you genuinely love doing art when things around you didn't matter. I do miss how things used to be so simple.

So for my next layout of my site, I want to go back to my first layout where it's just a one image that shows my work. Hopefully I'll have it up beginning of next year!

Kiki and Jiji

Kiki's Delivery Service is my favorite Jiburi movie! I always wanted to have my own talking cat on my side.
Few years ago I found out that the movie was based on novel so I couldn't resist myself from not getting it. The novel started like almost 15 years ago and it JUST finished the whole issue. It was definitely good timing to get the box set! The story is slightly different from the movie and it has more information about witches in their world.

I'm looking forward to reading this!
