5 Stages of Anger

The other day, I was busy fixing some quirks on this website.  It felt like such a chore.  It required me to visit most of our old posts. Anyway, as usual, I’d easily get lost and distracted and I would start reading older entries.  Some would make me cringe I want to delete the whole […]

Buyer’s Remorse

I don’t often talk about this here but before I started blogging, I was actually in the corporate world.  I spent less than three years there but I wasn’t able to save properly.  I realized, my earnings always went to coffee, a good lunch and monthly rewards for myself like dresses and things that are

When we launched the Oh Brighter Days collection last August, we just got home from our Singapore Workshop.  Then, the months after that seemed to compete with each other in terms of schedule with the following happening: La Union Workshop Katipunan Art Festival New Workshop: Brush Lettering Meets Paper Cutting Watercolor and Lettering Workshop Work &

Sorry for being MIA here on the blog and Instagram lately.  I spent the past few days catching up with some family time and preparing our tiny home for the newest member of our family. 🙂 I felt so adult when I bought a couple of drawers and groceries.  It’s feels like bahay-bahayan but not with

Chatting with Friends + Lettering Workshops

The hardest part about chatting is when you have to say good night and your brain keeps spewing out ideas and stories. Haha. I don’t know how many times I have to say good night to my friends and say “Ooooooh! Wait, by the way” …then “Good night” again and so on. Repeat this process

Happy 4th Wedding Anniversary!

For so many years, I’ve been wondering if I should share these personal photos and the stories behind them.  But then, I realized, a good chunk of you have been with us since we started back in 2009. 🙂  We were still dating then not knowing that a few months into making the comics, we’d

A Bright and Colorful Workshop with the Canon EOS M3

Hallo Guys! 🙂 🙂 A lot of you have been asking us in person as to who is it who loves taking photos, that’s both of us.  But today, Ponggo’s taking over the writing. *Yeah right, you will actually find my entries in italics because I’m talkative like that.*     T: As usual, I prepared

I Should Be Working

The traffic in the Metro has really been crazy.  Last Friday, it took us 2 hours & thirty minutes to traverse 7 kilometers.  Whoaaaa!  A couple of days before that, I ended up spending two hours on what could have been a 40-minute travel. Wahh!  Every single time I’m stuck in that situation, I end

Studio Tour: Abbey Sy

Since the Katipunan Art Festival, I found a renewed love for taking photos and I suddenly remembered why I really love blogging in the first place.  Aside from sharing comics and personal stories now and then, I enjoy being able to freeze a few moments in time through photos. Since that day we had a

Fan Girl

A couple of weeks back, I received a friend request form an artist I’ve been following for years now and I turned red–another friend of mine was a witness.  I’m not very good at being a fan girl in real life. I just give anyone I idolize a sheepish grin while being unable to compose

All About Color This Weekend

Wahh! It’s been a week since I’ve blogged!  Oh noes. I tried staying away from social media as much as I can so I could finish all the crazy deadlines.  So far, I’m done with 2 final artworks, 1 talk, 1 workshop, 2 tiny paintings and I have yet to do 16 pages of doodles,

The Introvert

I know I’ve said this before but I noticed that a majority of the people I know from the blogging / social media world are actually introverts.  Well, they may appear as extroverts during events and gatherings but I would usually catch them in their downtime wearing a do not disturb me face. 🙂 Hehehe.
