LSD love + Margaret Howells + A barricade

My blog isn't really catching up with my life, so this "LSD love" is made a month ago for Ian Caulkett's Fantastic Suburbia. I created this from Sarah Remy Lee's lovely poem, LSD love.

This one is Margaret Howell's elegant gown for Amelia's Magazine at London Fashion Week. Every time I tried to record the process of my drawing, I totally forget keeping it up, but you can tell my rough's not really helping my lines from the photo below!lol

and here are more random images from my life...

My handmade barricade!

He forgot to let me know whether he was coming back home or staying out, therefore I had to stay up waiting for him till very late, I was furious!! So of course I had to make a barricade as my protest :)))

My illustration in HUCK Magazine

Wow, it's real! (what I thought firstly) Yes, I did an illustration for amazing HUCK Magazine. I never really drew someone as wrinkly as him before but I think it came out ok, although I don't entirely get why I'm always surrounded by slightly trippy subjects. I can't even drink alcohol, honest.

This is the original!

They are the pom poms!

I love making them, yeah...

My ninja hamster

Cotto

I just became 26 years old the other day and yesterday was the day we booked a dinner at Cotto in Cambridge! It was the first visit there and we were so looking forward to it, so we even skipped a proper lunch. (Maybe the lovey dovey birds we saw earlier was a good sign.)

The Food there was... AWESOME!

Beef Carpaccio

Crayfish and crab starter

Red snapper with sorrel and samphire

Beef fillet steak

Blueberry creme brulee

Apple tart

They have a 3 course set menu only for £35, but they let you chose everything and have a different menu depending on what is fresh. They are also a cafe so you can have various teas and special cakes during the day, we'll definitely go back there again after their summer holiday. :)

Artwork framed!

This is my newly framed "Miss Panic"!

I love how clean it looks, and it's a nicely done frame though the guy in the frame shop could not stop teasing me for drawing a nude woman, maybe it didn't look quite connected as I am an average normal looking Asian girl. (girl?) I just thought maybe I should at least expose tits as this is for a porn graphical art collective, I'm not that fetish you see...

It is going to be sent to Zurich for upcoming Pornsaints exhibition at Museum of Porn in Art, sounds really exciting, I wonder what do they exhibit usually?!

Lovely girl from a planet of Blur

Saying "twitter is awesome!!" or "twitter is the best!!!" would put many people off probably and I'm not going to say that. But I must admit I met so many wonderful people through it, and Nadya Saskia is one of them! She is from Jakarta and totally crazy about Blur, she is the reason why I drew Damon Albarn for Illustration Rally.

I took part in her postcard project in which she sends a diy postcard to people who want it, they'll receive the postcard weeks later and they take a picture of themselves with the postcard or just the postcard alone. They send the photos to her and she compiles them into a zine!

Sounds awesome doesn't it?

and this is what I've done for her! I can't wait to see her completed zine...

Lesley Barnes Bookmark

I got lovely bookmarks from a wonderful animator/illustrator Lesley Barnes last week,

it was originally bought as a Valentine's day gift but Royal mail didn't deliver it successfully at the first time so she kindly sent me another one of her bookmarks for me too!

After getting these lovely gifts, I was suddenly in a mood for making something hand made by myself. So let's do origami since I'm a totally Japanese, this is a dodecahedron origami I made!

Hello everybody!

This is my first post in my new blog, Cats on Mars, it's a blog about my life, my illustration, fashion, music and anything that takes my fancy.

I was never successful with writing diaries, I don't remember well what I've done in my past so I'm lucky that I can draw a little and post it on this blog if it makes any sense.

I put a photo of my desk here so you can see how I work and live.

I start everything from here.
