Designer Con and Sanrio

Sorry about the slow post but last week was Designer Con. We had a great time and will most likely return for next year. It was good to meet new people and see old friends.  The highlight of my LA trip was the Sanrio 50th Partay in Santa Monica. It just happened to be the same week. My husband on the other hand doesn't believe me and thought I planned it. Hey I would admit it if it was.


Here are a few pictures. You can check the rest out on my Facebook Fan Page.

I hate it when they get my drink wrong.

I got coffee today. They got my drink wrong. I got angry. So I decided to draw about it. Now I am not angry anymore. Thank goodness I have something to take out my anger.

If sushi could talk....

When I was preggo I craved sushi. I craved it so much that I drew pictures of it. Sometimes I like to imagine my food talking to me. I know. I am strange.

Here is what they would say to me.






The sushi 12x18 print will be for purchase at APE. It will be up on my site for sale shortly after the show.

2 New Prints and APE this month

I finally got around to finishing 2 new prints. It took forever but I finally finished them. I know most of you know that I gave birth last Dec and well it has been pretty hard to keep up with Nanamation. I must say this has been a slow and not so productive year. My husband says I should give myself some slack since I did after all had a baby. But I feel like its no excuse to slack on my artwork.  Anyway way I am back on a schedule that I can manage and my son is a little older things are a bit easier. Hopefully I can speed things up.

Here are my two new artworks. Also Alternative Press Expo is this month. October 16-17. Come visit me and say hello!

Zombies and Brains

Last week we threw our good friend a Zombie Birthday Party. I signed up to make red velvet cupcakes and boy did I have fun decorating. The husband even helped out with the decorating. HE had a lot of fun.


I also crochet him a Zombie Bunny to keep to the theme. Here is the sketch.

Here is the Zombie bunny!!


I wrapped it in a bag w/a Hello Kitty Zombie Bag that I made. I bought a Hello Kitty coloring book and tore one of the pages and colored the Hello Kitty in Zombie Colors.
Boy oh boy..it was a fun weekend!

Kimchee Pizza

That's right..Kimchee Pizza. When we had American food for dinner growing up, my mom would always find a way to put some Korean food into it. Back then I hated Kimchee Pizza but now I miss it.

Comics strip for Nanamation?

When I go to comic cons a lot of people ask if Nanamation will be doing any comics or stories? I usually tell people "no" because I rather do the art and I am not much of a writer. I mean, I went to art school so I can avoid writing essays. However,  a while back I did a comic book called 'Nan and the Flies' that I gave away FREE. That was pretty fun. It was basically about me as a child catching flies. I had this weird obsession with catching flies. It's a long story.

Anyway I wanted to explore that area so I decided I'll try a few this month and see where it goes.

Here is two of them....


This one is called "What's for lunch". Growing up I wanted to have such a normal sandwich lunch! Instead I always got something with rice. Typical Asian mom!




















This next one is called "comfort food". My husbands comfort food was grilled cheese sandwiches.  One of mine was boiled octopus w/rice and some hot sauce of course! YUM!

Nanamation on Canvas

A Nanamation Fan emailed me about getting not just one but 2 prints in a larger form. I was really honored that I looked into it.

I got them today and they came out beautiful! I hope she likes them!

Moving Nanamation Blog...

I decided to move my blog to Google's Blogger. I can't stand livejournal's ads. It drives me nuts everytime I want to blog about something. So I decided to try Google's Blog. If this doesn't work then I'll try out word press. I heard good things about it.

Setting Goals

I realized I need to set weekly goals because if I don't then nothing gets done. I decided to do 2 sketches per night (at least). It will be tough with JJ but I GOTTA keep up w/Nanamation. I am also setting other goals like finishing a new print in 3 days or new print in a week. It will be tough but we will see how it goes.

Here is tonights sketch...

Phoenix is my next show

Okay..its been really hard to do any updates or do nanamation stuff lately. I had a baby last December and he has been keeping me BUSY. Also he is the worlds fussiest baby.

Hopefully now that I got a nanny once a week I will have more time for updates and more time for nanamation work!

I will be in Phoenix next week at the Phoenix Comicon so if you are all there then stop by my booth and say hello!
