Seven years ago I made this drawing for my mother-in-law. She loves Peanuts and Snoopy.
So I’m extra excited that tomorrow I will be featured at the Schulz Museum in Santa Rosa. If you’re in the area, please come by. I will be signing books and talking about my comics process.
Looking forward to seeing you there!
From now until May 10th enjoy 15% off my shop during the Mother’s Day sale.
I will also be signing books as part of Free Comic Book Day at Isotope Comics in San Francisco this Saturday.
Meanwhile I’m close to complete on the final art for my upcoming picture book, written by Bea Birdsong, I WILL BE FIERCE. After which I will roll right into finishing artwork for my first bilingual board book, Shubh Raatri Dost! Sometime after that I hope to create some new illustrations to share here.
Until then, I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Another comic I created based on true events on the ipad with procreate. I’ve uploaded some process videos on youtube.

One of my favorite books from the few books I read for my book club last year was The Sun is Also a Star. I drew this quick drawing of the main characters, Natasha and Daniel.
I hope you have a lovely week!
I’m back from a whirlwind trip to Anaheim for Wondercon. We released some new products there that are now in the shop – a limited edition cupcake warrior tote bag and snuggling sea turtle notepads. Every purchase over $15 will received a free calendar (while supplies last).
I hope you have a great week!
By request, I drew this Moana for my toddler.
We’re off to Wondercon this weekend and I’m happy to share that I’m a special guest of the show. You can find me there Fri-Sun in Artist Alley table B-01. I will also participate on a couple panels. My spotlight panel is on Sunday at 10:30am, Room 208 with my friend and tv writer Teresa Huang.
If you’re not at the show but around, I will have a signing at Wonderground Gallery on Friday evening from 6-8pm with Eunjung June Kim and Ashley Taylor.
I hope to see you there!
As I travel and am away from my drawing equipment more and more, I decided to invest in an ipad and apple pencil. I started to play with an app that tons of my artist friends have been raving about – procreate. Last night I discovered that it records the creation process! I’m sharing it here:
Tomorrow I will be speaking at St. Victors in San Jose with Gene Yang, if you’re around please join us.
I hope you have a lovely weekend.
