sometimes, I have such a strong urge to create some "thing" that I just have to drop what I am working on and do it, sometimes I don't even know what may show up. Chief Bromden (One flew over the cuckoo's nest) showed up. I don't know why.

New illustration for Molecular Metabolism The Metabolic Remix - about how a high fructose diet remixes our metabolic system. But not in a good way. Kinda like when a band's record gets remixed and instead of it sounding better, the vibe is destroyed and it sucks.

a tribute to David Lynch - inspired by his way of living, I did this one by pushing myself to take risks with technique. It was amazing that when I surrendered to the creative process, this flowed out of me.
