Hey everyone! 🌟 Despite this year’s challenges, I’m determined to pursue lettering and design. If you’d like to support me in upgrading to a new iPad, check out the perks for chipping in my tip jar or consider a lettering design commission. Your help means the world to me! 🎨 #birthdaywish
The Commission 00004-Ocean Front Leather Bags by Aaron
Technically, it’s not a commission since I was the one who saw Aaron's post about his latest product line, "Ocean Front," and loved the name so much that I couldn't resist designing a lettering for it. When I saw the words "Ocean Front," the image of waves immediately came to mind. The name should flow like the waves, so I used the typeface Aaron had already visualized, made it more fluid, and adjusted the slant to align with the waves.
The Wallpaper 00002-The Love of My Life is the Love for My LifeThe Wallpaper 00002 - The Love of My Life is the Love for My Life
I've offered this as a free wallpaper for iPhone, iPad, and PC. However, donating a little would mean a lot to me as I am saving up for a new iPad as my birthday present this month. In a world where we are often taught to seek validation from others, most people believe they need someone to fulfill their lives, thinking they must find the missing piece of their heart to feel truly loved.
The Commission 00003-Wallpapers for Vincent Ritter
Vincent tried to help me get a new iPad (and you can help too!), so he gave me a tip that made me feel over the moon when I saw the amount. I wanted to show my gratitude with some lettering, but he didn’t give me any brief, so I had to wing it myself! Then, I remembered he mentioned liking red before, so I used a deep red and brown color scheme.
My Newfound Appreciation for the Song "Oblivion" by Bastille
The song "Oblivion" by Bastille has always held a special place in my heart since its release. When you fall asleep with your head upon my shoulder When you're in my arms but you've gone somewhere deeper Are you going to age with grace? Are you going to age without mistakes? Are you going to age with grace? Or only to wake and hide your face? When oblivion is calling out your name You always take it further than I ever can When you play it hard and I try to follow you there It's not about control, but I turn back when I see where you go Are you going to age with grace?

Twisters, 2024 - ★★★★
This is surprisingly great! Solid casting with enough story to help you understand the characters, but the most impressive part is the visuals.
The Commission 00002-Wallpaper for Melanie Kat
Melanie tried to help me get a new iPad (and you can help too!) by commissioning me to create a lettering design for her name. The brief is simple: Name: Melanie Kat - Chosen Style: Clean - Preferred Colors: 🩵🩷🤍🏳️⚧️ - Phone Model: iPhone 15 Pro Max This is the lettering design I came up with: I love the given color palette; it's fun and cute but also delicate.

The Wallpaper 00001-Fear Less, Progress, Live More
I've offered this as a free wallpaper for iPhone, iPad, and PC. However, if you could donate a little, it would mean a lot to me as I am saving up for a new iPad as my birthday present this month. I love the word "fearless," but eliminating fear is impossible. Instead, we’d be better off focusing on being less fearful and taking steps toward a more meaningful life.
Uranus 2324, 2024 - ★★★½
"Uranus 2324" is a movie that really caters to fans of a certain on-screen couple, but if you're looking for a strong storyline as a whole, you might be disappointed. The space operations scenes are some of the worst I've ever seen, with no sense of urgency at all. The editing, score, dialogue, and line deliveries all fall flat. Let’s just say they left the sense of urgency back on Earth.
Death Is a Collective Grief That Brings Families Together
Grandma is dying; there’s no way around it. She’s already 94 years old, so no one is surprised, and we’ve all been preparing for it in our own ways for a long time. Still, when the doctor said she had less than a month, putting a definite deadline on something we were too scared to think about, it made us realize that it’s really happening and not just some arbitrary prediction anymore.

My New Super Simple Weekly Planning Setup
So, I tried bullet journaling in 2022 and then evolved into my own system mixing both analog and digital tools. But this year? I fell off the planning wagon hard. Like, barely-planned-a-thing hard. Here are the lessons I learned from my epic planning fail: Too much on my plate: Digital tools let me add infinite tasks, which is a recipe for overload. Guilt trip: Seeing unfinished tasks made me feel paralyzed.

The Log 00003-Lessons from Two Months of Daily Lettering
Hi! I’m Ning. If you’ve been following me, you might have come across some, or hopefully all, of my lettering pieces over the past two months. Long story short, I kicked off my lettering journey in April with almost zero knowledge of design and lettering—just a pure love for typography. I assigned myself daily lyrics lettering in May and daily LGBTQIA+ character name lettering last month. Here's what I've learned after two months: Lettering is More Than Letters: It's the whole graphic design process.
