Njoy pothos update #2! Some of you have requested to see the plant in it's full glory (after me just showing 1 leaf 😅), well here it is on a 7 feet pole! The pot is obviously too small, just 9 diameter. I tie it to the plant rack beside to prevent it from toppling!

Peach strudel on the menu today! Half a year have passed, and I think I spent most of 2021 baking stuff on watercolor paper! 😆 Saw this yummy dessert and I thought I heard the glossy peaches screaming for me to paint them, so I agreed and here's the results! 😅 Did I do them justice?

Cherry cake! 😋 This was painted way back in 2018! Back then, I used to rely heavily on white gouache for highlights! These days, I train myself to simply color around the highlights, and only use gouache for tiny dots that I missed out! (because I don't like gouache's texture on watercolor)

🍣 Sushi galore!! [This is watercolor, NOT photo 😆] Made a collage of all the sushis that I've painted! I LOVE sushi, but they're so expensive! My favorite would be unagi sushi! But I'll settle with tamago/tobiko sushi when I'm broke! I'm not choosy tho, any sushi is yummy sushi to me haha!

My pillar of Joy! literally! 😍 Finally chopped my tall, HUGE Njoy pothos to repot it. It has grown way too tall and had actually toppled over last week. Bet you never knew Njoy could grow so big huh? 😆😆 P/S: One year to reach this size in the tropical country I live in, started from a small pot.

Baked this blueberry dessert, with watercolor haha! Yes, this is a painting. Spent a fair amount of time trying to do the texture for the powdery-sprinkle, but the process was super therapeutic and the outcome justifies all my effort, so eventhough my tummy is growling, my heart is full! Feel me?

[Watercolor] 🍳 Soft boiled eggs on kaya-toast! Malaysian style breakfast! After spending hours on this piece, my dad saw my painting and asked what's that on the toast? Shrimp? 😵 This made me doubt myself because I thought I did a great job doing the eggs ugh! Thoughts??

Made some pink macarons with watercolor! 😋 Macarons are lovely subjects to paint but they're a little too sweet for my taste buds! 😅 That's the benefit of painting food though! I get to feast with the eyes! 0 calories, 100% satisfaction (or maybe not 🤣🤣)

Happy 2022 everyone!! Today I painted this Japanese Dango! 🤩🤩 I'm a food-artist, so I paint what I crave! Dango is a chewy dessert made of rice flour (like mochi)! The Mitarashi dango is typically glazed with a gooey sweet soy sauce to give it that glossy, yummy shine! PERFECT for painting haha!

Best way to save cost + go on diet during CNY? Paint food! 🤔🤣🤣 As I was painting this, I wondered, actually why do people eat abalone during CNY ah? Is it because they look like Chinese gold ingots?

When my manjula pothos houseplant doesn't belong in the house anymore! Plus it reverted 😭 Probably going to give it a cut to get the variegation back! P/S: I live in a tropical country and it takes 6 months to grow this big from an average house plant pot)
