i put so much water and watercolor on this page that it started fraying everywhere and oh my god I got so stressed. future note the moleskine sketchbook's water absorbency is limited, but it was fun working through an idea in a small format.

the life of a magical girl really is so tragic. thinking about girls stuck in impossible circumstances yet finding a way nevertheless.

❣️ Portraits, karaoke, crafts, and 🇵🇭 Filipino chaos (the good kind).

I’ll be drawing 5–10 min portraits at in Brooklyn on Feb 2 | 7–10 PM.
Get a portrait of yourself, your lover, your bestie, your situationship… or yes, your celebrity crush. I won’t judge.

🦄 Rumors say there may be a Chappell Roan power hour 👀

Come be drawn. Come hang. Come sing. It’s going to be very Filipino.
