What am I working on? Working on doing nothing. :P I have not picked up any artwork for a couple of days now. I think I have some kind of a creative block now. What am I reading? I recently read Ghost World by Daniel Clowes. The book’s visuals are striking — black‑and‑white line illustrations washed in a green hue. The story follows two friends, Rebecca and Enid, as they navigate everyday life. Often hailed as a cult classic, Ghost World explores the complexities of friendshi

What am I working on? My partner collected a few stones near Kawasan Falls in Philippines. Planning to paint those. What am I reading? Last week I read Mental Load by Emma. The book is relatable, especially for women, as it tackles concepts that demand attention. I liked the sections on the mental load, women in the workplace, and the subtle differences in how men and women navigate work versus family - it was sharp and thought-provoking. Some parts feel less connected—anecdo

What am I working on? At the airport, I overheard someone say 'Feel the Feels'. I thought that should be on a t-shirt. So I made this: What am I reading? The last few weeks I was vacationing in Philippines and I read these 3 books. The Librarian of Auschwitz by Antonio Iturbe (Illustrated by Loreto Aroca) is a deceptively simple illustrated book, yet it carries another gripping story from the Holocaust. I am always struck by the courage and resilience people carried within t

What am I working on? Got a lot of moulding clay at home. I am making some pen stand out of it for the new desk I got. What am I reading? Read two books recently- The Many Deaths of Laila Starr - This was a brilliant, gripping read - reminded me of Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman . The premise is immediately engaging: the Goddess of Death is fired and forced to live as a mortal in Mumbai to stop the inventor of immortality. This One Summer - A beautifully illustrated. While the p

What am I working on? I was working on making a calendar for the year and getting it printed. It is a little late, yes. But better late than never :P What am I reading? I recently read The Magic Fish by Trung Le Nguyen, and it’s crazy that this is his debut graphic novel. The way he weaves together the struggle of disclosing his queerness to his family with the narration of fairy tales feels fresh - I have never read something like this before. His use of color as narrative

What am I working on? Working on my 5th mini comic . This time I am using colours unlike the 4 black and white comics I made earlier. What am I reading? I started reading the Four hour work week What am I watching/watched recently? Watched a beautiful stop motion movie - Memoir of a snail. A humorous but heartbreaking tale of two siblings and how their life unfolds when they are separated after being orphaned. It surely taught me this - life can be so transient - you will fac

What am I working on? Working on a new comic and enjoying some time off from work. Tried making some magnets and it turned out pretty good. What am I reading? The last graphic novel for the year. Its called 'It's lonely at the centre of the Earth'. The artist has found a striking way of confronting her depressive thoughts. Certain frames are truly ingenious — they inspired me to imagine something equally powerful and visually compelling. The work feels like a raw, unfiltered

What am I working on? My first mini comic. I had written it a few months back and decided to draw it this week. It is about the first time me and my mother went to a beach. What am I reading? Blue sisters by Coco Mellors What am I watching/watched recently? Sakamoto Days - unique premise, likeable characters, great energy, feel good vibe New thing I learnt lately? Earth overshoot day measures in how much time we consume all the resources that the Earth generates in a year. I

What am I working on? Commission of a doodle for celebrating International Men's Day. Seems like a hectic week ahead at work! What am I reading? Longform 2025. I was so excited to receive the parcel. I will share a review in some other update :) What am I watching/watched recently? Watched Frankenstein on Netflix. Gloriously gothic. I have never read the book but the movie made me realise what I missed reading. The movie is a marvel - and heartbreaking with Jacob Elordi's raw

What am I working on? Commission of 4 doodles for a someone's farewell. It is exciting to know someone even without ever meeting/knowing them :P Work in office is going as usual - have been taking more focus time to think about the problem statements before I start executing them What am I reading?
