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

D.I.Y. and O.O.A.K.

If you like wearing, using, or making (and yup, making money off) one-of-a-kind items, check out Etsy, the place to buy and sell all things handmade. I just came from a one-hour ogling spree and if I'm not $10-or-so shipping dollars away, I would've gotten my hands on the following ...

The year that was.

How swiftly time flies! It's once again that time of year when the lot of us are busy making "best of" or new year's resolution lists. As a matter of fact, my Arn and I have this ritual of enumerating highlights of each month by year's end. (It's fun, you ...

Merry Kreezmas

Arn and I chanced upon this poster on our way to Katz Deli (when we were in NYC last summer) and I remember us thinking "HOW???" Apparently, to see is to believe. Two nights ago Charles Ross (who happens to be the one man in One Man Star Wars Trilogy) guested ...

A whole lotta Posy, the Komikon, and other things.

Longtime readers of this blog should know that I just love Posy Simmonds' work (... in fact I not-so-secretly wish to be able to do what she does, sigh) so imagine my delight when I learned that she has a new serialized strip called Tamara Drewe at the Guardian Online. ...

Work and Play

While I occupied myself designing t-shirts and whatnot, Arn was busy creating a card game to accompany his latest book The Mythology Class Special Collected Edition. The game is now available for download (for FREE!) at the Myth Class website so please do give it a try. It's really ...

Make tusok the fishballs

The CafePress bug bit me hard so I made another shop, this time selling fun household items and apparel carrying playful Pinoy food prints like isaw, bibingka, sago't gulaman and the like. Hope you can check it out. :D *** Do you dig the itchyworms!? (We do!) There's good news, their much-awaited ...

Any takers?

I've been wanting to get some work up on CafePress but there was always never enough time. Until now! So if you have friends who are getting married*, you might wanna consider giving them cute and functional casual wear that they can use in pre-wedding activities. In case you missed it ...

Plugging our phlogs

As you know, we update our phlog more often so I guess I'll just see you there these next few weeks. d: And while you're at it, please visit my brother Calvin's and one of my best galpals Sheila's phlogs too.

Peepshow

We have 2 weeks-full of shoots for our wedding mag. If you wanna take a sneak peek at the behind-the-scenes action, click here.

Prepare Ye The Way

Happy Easter (: And what Lenten season is complete without Godspell playing in the background? On loop? I've had the soundtrack for ages, but it was only last year (at the big Astroplus-Podium sale to be exact) when we acquired the DVD. Highly recommended for the soul. *Oh, Seasons 1, 2, ...

What happened since the last time I blogged here? Lots! LOL but I'm not here to talk about them right now since I only have time to share with you Arnold's latest project, an animated film starring his very own Andong Agimat! Arn's never animated before (except for the flip books ...

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 ...

You make me want to tell all I know

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 ...
