i ♥ My Early Christmas Presents

When I was a kid, I would borrow (read: steal) my Lolo David’s fountain pens because I thought they were just so fancy. Calligraphy was part of my art curriculum when I was 6 years old (I had the coolest art teacher!), and I remember using my lolo’s fountain pens to practice instead of my cheapo plastic ones. But, thanks to Em, I now have my own ‘beginner’ fountain pen! This one is from Muji.

 

She also got me a thrifted Emily The Strange shirt, because she says I look like Emily. Hmm.. I think I will take this as a sign to chop off my bangs again. Hehe.

 

Last night, my buddy Marky surprised me (and PJ) with the only Holiday CD that trumps my Mixtape: She & Him!!! Complete with a holiday card from Matt & Zoey (and Mark) plus P50 ampao. How shweet.

Painted this variegated rose and added it to a garden pattern 🥀 Mixed magenta, apricot, brick, and buff #LABhandmadewatercolors & a no.2 round brush for this piece. Took my time with each petal, and it felt like a little meditative activity. 🤍

It's a happy Saturday morning in my favorite spot in our garden. This area catches the bright morning sun, making all the plants super happy. 😁 Heliconia psittacorum are planted on the ground next to bamboo & palm. Hanging out in this corner inspired me to make a new heliconia ceramic palette shape, and I love how these turned out!😍

So excited to share my new design collab with @casajuanmnl! The collection features the Mabolo fruit (velvet apple) and flowers from the Kamagong tree, watercolored and printed on porcelain plates. Looking at these makes me want to plan the menu for a little gathering! 🧡💚

A set includes four dinner plates, salad plates, and soup bowls, and they’re available at casajuan.ph 😁
