Comic-Con 2013

I like to keep my blogs short and to the point. I am not a writer. I am an artist so less writing and more drawing whenever possible. So with this in mind here is the pictures I gathered from Comic con 2013.

Comic con is stressful and crazy. The thought of dealing with the people and madness makes my head spin but once I seem to forget about it and turns out to have fun.

Here are some pictures that I took at the show.

Sorry for the late posts. Kids. Thats my excuse.

My booth!

Hello kitty ugly dolls went fast

Odd to see spider man next to hello kitty

Mr. White!

Best costumes is when you actually look the part!

Our waiter from dinner we had one of the nights -of course he wasn't dressed this way.

It's Spock..do I need to say more?!

Sleep and Zombie

I need sleep. Sleep is good. Lately I haven't been getting enough sleep. Its expected with a newborn baby. With an active toddler and a 3 month old...I sure am not getting any. So during the day I feel like zombie so I thought it would be funny to a Nanamation Zombie illustration.

Here is the latest artwork. It was created from sleep deprivation. It's mostly done. Well it is done but I like to run my artworks by my husband.

Cupcake Humor

 It could be the lack of sleep I am getting has made me slap happy or from watching too much Cupcake Wars on FoodNetwork, but here is a silly cupcake humor illustration I did. 

Lately its been taking a long time to finish one art piece. Before I could crank artwork much faster but with an active toddler, new infant, making meals and running house errands, my time is limited. Also on my spare time I rather be sleeping. So thanks for being patient with my updates. They will be coming but not as quick as before.

A little late but Happy Chinese New Year

Happy Chinese New Year...yeah I know I am late on this. With a newborn and a toddler - Nanamation has been on the back wagon for now but its slowly progressing. Hopefully as the kids get older I will have more time.

I was born in the year of the snake so its kinda a special year for me. So far the year has been great.

YUMMY SPAM!!!

One of my deepest darkest secrets is that I love SPAM. Yes,  the kind you get in a can. I don't eat it everyday or its an item that I carry in my pantry but I get a craving for it when I am having my kimchi stew or eating ramen.

Now if I was stuck on and island or was the last person on earth then I would consume it everyday as my protein intake.


When I go to my local korean grocery store, they have a big SPAM display so people won't forget to pick some up.

I like my SPAM fried with rice and a big bowl of kimchi stew.  How do you like your SPAM cooked?

This will be added to my 1 inch button collection for sale soon.

New Button Idea - Pocky Treats!

I just adore Pocky and the cute package it comes in.  My son loves Pocky as much as I do. He does things I tell him to earn his one Pocky cookie stick. In other words -  yes I bribe him to do things for Pocky sticks.  I know I am a bad parent but HEY it gets him to eat his veggies and potty training was easy for us. There is so many in a package that one box goes a long way for us since he gets one for doing something I tell him to.

Pocky how I love you!

3 New Artworks

Here are 3 new artworks I have been working on. Adding the last few details but its pretty much done. Trying to get these done before my 2nd son arrives.

Oh wait lets not forget StarWars

In regards to my last post - http://nanamation.blogspot.com/2013/01/mommys-favorite-superhero.html


Lets not forget about Star Wars. Its all I hear about these days in my household.  Hey I am a female so I am all about women roles so Princess Leia would be my favorite of course.

Mommy's favorite SuperHero

So my son is into super heros like Batman, Spiderman and Superman. Mine would be have to be Wonderwoman. If Wonderwoman had kids and had a blog tips about balancing life w/kids, family and saving the world -- I would so be a dedicated follower but then again she has super powers. All mommy's should be given super powers. Life would be easier is all I am saying.

Happy New Year! 2013!

Happy New Year! 

IT has been a while since I have posted anything. A lot has been going on with my personal life. I left my contract work last October so I can refocus on my artwork. It has been a slow process but its been getting there. Also we are preparing the birth of our 2nd son who is due any day now. 

I am not sure how many shows I'll get to do this year but we will be at Comic Con San Diego in July.
