First attempt of drawing my favorite couple from SENSE8 - Kala & Wolfgang. They don't look like them, but I tried. 😂 Also, if you've followed me for awhile, you'd know that I don't draw guys very often so this is my 1st practice in about a year I think. Phew! Gonna draw them again another time! ⠀ As usual, this is drawn on my handy-dandy @mossery mixed media sketchbook with Van Gogh watercolors & some Sakura pen magixxxx✨⠀ P.S. I'm so used to painting light skin tones that it took me awhile to get a good darker color for Kala. Must practice again! 🤔⠀

If at first you don't succeed, try and try again. Still not successful on this so I'm literally going to have to try again. 😂 This is me celebrating the approval of the 2-hour special of #sense8 on Netflix!!!! 😭😭😭😭 ⠀ Painted with Van Gogh, w & n, & Holbein watercolors on my lovely @Mossery mixed media notebook! 💕⠀

リング (Ring) | Last but not the least, my friends got engaged during our night adventure to Pallet Town! They rode the huge ferris wheel (those are the tickets); while my other friends & I lay in wait for the good news and to record their moments after the proposal. 💍😘

ポケットモンスター (Pokémon / Pocket Monsters) | I've been a huge fan of Pokémon since I was young! I remember playing the card game with my friends in school. I had 2 decks! Heh! When we went to Tokyo, we obviously planned to go to the Pokémon Center & we did. 😏  The place was filled with merchs that I couldn't really afford though. 😭😭😭  Still, I bought some little souvenirs for my friends & nephew. ✨ P.S. My friend couldn't find any Psyduck merchs in the store. :(

オムライス (Omurice) | Ate the best omurice I've ever tasted in Tokyo! If I could, I would have this every day for breakfast! // How's everyone?! 😁💕Hope you're all having a wonderful holiday!

カラオケ🎤 (Karaoke) | A Japan trip wouldn't be complete without karaoke-ing for one night! Disney songs ftw!!!! 😂😂😂 Thank you, Carla A, for singing with us till our throats hurt!!! ✨

ハチ公 (Hachiko) | Ah... When I watched the movie, Hachiko, it made me cry a whole lot. Movies w/ dogs usually make me emotional. Heh. Seeing his statue in person, it reminded me of the pup I left at home. It's a bit too bad that we didn't get to see the newly erected statue of Hachi finally seeing his owner after so many years of waiting. Next time. 😊 // I did a drawing of Hachi a few months back; so I went ahead and copied some of the colors from my past artwork. 😂

P.S. As usual, copied the kanji from the Internet cause I can't do calligraphy to save my life. ~exhausted~ 😴
