My character dramatically and enthusiastically holding up a packet of lactase pills.
My character eating a bowl of gelato, a pizza, and a milkshake all in one sitting like old future Peter Parker from "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" (2018)
My character hunched over on a toilet, with paramedics declaring his time and cause of death.
One pill is not enough.

A series of #illustration work that I did when I was work on the branding design for Keep It Kaimukī Saturday, a small business festival that focuses on small local businesses in the #Kaimukī area. The brief was to use the colors and beauty of a #crownflower.

Illustration of kī (ti).

Some more #illustration work for a story about some plants natively found in the Waikīkī area, and their importance in the context of Native Hawaiian culture.
This one is for R Magazine, the in-mall publication for Royal Hawaiian Center.

Some #illustration work for FLUX Hawaii magazine. It's a piece where the author waxes poetic about Hawai‘i's culture of shared driveways and the commune-like culture they foster for her as a new parent.

Sit with your burnout, acknowledge the limits of your energy, reset your goals, and begin to formulate a plan of action to protect yourself in the future.
Alternative title: hot girl summer.

Another moody doodle, this time exploring the feeling of approaching a creative wall and the bliss of a potential reset. Drawing flames is legitimately so fun.

A moody doodle I made when I was thinking about taking the leap into full self-employment after a year of trying to basically work a full-time job and start a business at the same time.

Here's the digital version of "FLAVORS", which I wrote for last year's #HonoluluPride. It's a short and sweet (pun intended) story about shave ice and finding the combination of colors that suits you! (1/2)
