Inspired by the El Nido Birds
I recently came across a photo of myself with a bird flying across the sky, taken at the Gate of Heaven in Bali. It immediately brought me back to the birds in El Nido.
There’s a certain stillness you notice when you watch birds in El Nido. You still hear them chirp, there’s no silence there, yet the sound feels soothing rather than intrusive. Their presence wastes nothing, especially when they hop onto my window straight from the wilderness. They arrive unannounced yet unmistakably welcome, sitting there and chirping as if in conversation with me.
I don’t understand what they’re saying or what occupies their minds, but their energy says it all. No hidden agenda. Maybe only a message that reveals itself over time.
It speaks of presence, intention, and movement that needs no explanation. Energy doesn’t need words. What arrives in alignment doesn’t need to perform. And alignment here isn’t strategy.
So, leave the tactics and strategic moves at the office, your personal life doesn’t need to be overthought.
Neon Jellyfish: When Art Becomes Reality
In 2021, I painted this vibrant neon artwork of a jellyfish. I’ve always been obsessed with glowing colors, especially under a blacklight in a dark room. There’s something so alive and otherworldly about that kind of glow!
Recently, this artwork found its meaning during a kayaking trip in Port Barton.
What are Goals?
Felt like I wandered for two whole years, it’s great to be ‘home.’

Since a brand new year is here, it’s the best time to write about ‘goals.’ I happen to listen to some perspectives on goals that are worth sharing and which, collectively, makes perfect sense:
WIP: Inner Wisdom
📍UBUD
Tweaked more digital artworks and this is one of my favorite pieces lately, “INNER WISDOM,” because of the ideas and thoughts behind it.

I added colors on the image using another drawing app- which I usually use for my gradient colors. I seem to not like how I do it with Procreate. But I then import the layer back into Procreate till it’s done.
