Actually I almost bought the same design but in different colour during a sale... ever happen to you before?

Ever felt so good when people ordered the same food as yours?

Some of you were shocked to learn that I have stones in my ears but actually everybody has them. In normal circumstances, they stay inside a chamber with a membrane to keep them from going out. However when a person ages or suffer from a head trauma, these small stones may dislodge and float around in the ear fluid tubes that disturbs the body's balance system (aka vestibular system) and the mind perceives the room as spinning although it isn't, aka vertigo giddiness. The term BPPV means the vertigo is aggravated by certain head positions, comes suddenly and although it seems serious, it is actually not life threatening. However during a vertigo attack, it is very uncomfortable as the whole room seems spinning. BPPV is common among elderly and people with head trauma. So the only thing I recalled doing out of the blue was an aerial yoga session 2 days before and an attempt on tripod headstand the day before. I only felt fatigue on that day and suddenly woke up to a spinning r

Anyone who has traveled to Japan will know that their train stations require a lot of stair climbing. Escalators and elevators are either far away or non-existent, so be prepared if you are bringing your parents or kids in strollers!

You can find trishaw uncles at Chinatown and dashing rickshaw pullers at Kyoto~ Idea contributed by Catherine, one of my yoga teachers!

A few of my fans on Patreon requested me to upload screen captures of me working, so I decided to do one of the pages of my second book that I was working on. The second part is a travel guide to Japan and this one showed how I came to design the map (which turned out to be drawing a Totoro fanart...). This is 17min long. The second part shows more finished artwork but the final map is a bit different and you will be able to see it in my second book, releasing later this year. This second part video is 20min long.

Quite a lot of us receive emails from companies who say they were looking to build a "long-term" relationship with the artist as a way to request more discount (sometimes free work too). But we prefer to see the cash first...

If you have been receiving all the posts from my FB and Instagram, you'll know that my book and cat cushions are now selling at all 6 Naiise outlets in Singapore. They opened a brand new flagship store at the Cathay's basement this month and they invited all suppliers to party!

After relentless whining about the lack of support for artists and my expensive monthly medical fees, a friend decided to pledge and encouraged me to finish my second book earlier. And because it was my birthday month, a fan increased her pledge to $10 for this month only, hence for the first time in more than a year, I finally reached the goal of US$600/month!!! ＼(≧▽≦)丿♪ ＼(≧▽≦)丿♪ ＼(≧▽≦)丿♪  But after one day, a fan lowered his pledge for June... ... anyway, at least all patrons are still around!!! It has not been easy and many times I was disappointed because although I have 96,000 likes on FB  and 5,400 followers on Instagram, I have less than 60 patrons supporting me. Which made me wonder WHY??? Sometimes I post about my disappointment on FB, but I would get random readers telling me to stop posting such demoralising posts, so I only post my comics nowadays... #supportlocal ? When my first book was published in 2014, I had around 48,000 likes but sales was slow. I h
