This year, counting down for Christmas, I decided to do a doodle Advent Calendar. Draw blobs on a blank page, fill them up with colours and then draw something inside each blob daily. This is how it started:

I read Virginia Woolf’s Orlando and all I could come up with is this cheery wolf, specifically for celebrating the little victories in the daily life (and also manifesting a special pension for nothing but doing art and writing, I guess 😅).

Hear me out: Dune, but the worms are giant pigeons.

I read Madeline Miller’s Circe for a second time and I had a lightbulb moment for a little comic.
