“Young cat, if you keep your eyes open enough, oh, the stuff you would learn. The most wonderful stuff.” - Dr. Seuss

A little hug becomes huge instantly.

Like our good pals Sheila and Mike, Arn and I have been going on a nostalgia trip, to the 70s this time. It all started when I gave him The Incredible Hulk ((Sigh, it's a much-delayed reaction but I feel bad knowing that David Banner (Bill Bixby) and Jack Colvin ...

Last year’s troubles are so old fashioned

Halloo, I'm back. This site was down again all weekend so I finally left Affordablehost, my home for five years, for the it - seems - to - me more reliable Axishost. You can read about -- and possibly learn from -- why I did so on this page. *** My Arn ...

Who will buy this wonderful feeling?

Encouraged by a sudden increase in sales in my Cafepress shops ((Most of the buyers are US-based. I have a feeling it must be because school is about to start and everyone wants new shirts to wear. Alright!)), I decided to open a few more last week. Four are wedding-related ...

To being an ‘us’ for once, instead of a ‘them’

Anyone who has the time and patience to make anything handmade is definitely a hero in my book, and as some of you know, I've been posting about everything-DIY for years ((Maybe even before the term DIY caught on locally)) so I thought, ok, for once I'll show (and not ...

‘We missed you’ hissed the…

A couple of years ago, I made a mom-and-baby cat illustration for a book that never happened for some reason or other. I found it again while spring-cleaning my hard drive and thought, why not put it to good use? So if you love cats, red tabbies in particular, and [a] ...

Another year wiser…

So how have you been? Me? I was neck deep in work and more importantly, in offline life, since the last time I blogged: 1. Arn and I had new water pipes installed in our home. The original pipes were more than 20 years old and one of them had leaked, ...

More Andong, more projects…

Please please please buy my Arn's book Ang Mundo ni Andong Agimat: now available at Comic Quest (Megamall, SM City North Edsa) and by now it should already be at National Book Store, Powerbooks, Fully Booked and Filbars. Less than a week after it's release, we were excited to have ...

Si Andong Agimat, andito na!

Hope you friends can support my dear hubby's new book. This is my Arn's take on the Filipino "superhero". Hope you enjoy it - I read it one sitting and give it 5/5 kittypoints (not just because he's my hubby mind you, I honestly think it's his best yet). :D Now ...

Si Andong Agimat, parating na.

Please mark your calendars, dear people! My Arn's new novel is coming out in April 2006. We sent out about 15 teaser ads, each one sporting a different character/design, to different sets of email addies and thanks to Technorati's watchlist feature, so far I've seen 7 of them pop up ...

Funny bunnies

If you have 30 seconds to spare, I suggest that you watch the bunnified blockbuster* films at Angry Alien. Yes, bunnified, as in starred in by bunnies. Can you tell what movies the bunnies are re-enacting? If , like me, you don't have the guts ever plan to to watch The ...

All’s well that ends well

I apologize for being in a bad mood today but a certain "Totally Creative Graphic Design Studio" totally ripped off one of my original artworks and is selling it on notepads, journals and other stationery in their store "Invitation House". Tsk. My original design, a low-res image of which has been ...

I don’t have a reason, but I live like I do

In an alternate reality, the Eraserheads actually released an 8th final full-length album titled Waltz This Knee containing 8 new tracks by the Philippines' fab four. This is the album's wraparound sleeve that I designed: In this reality however, the revolutionary team of Uno Magazine invited me to illustrate a piece ...
