Things happen when you go out in Tokyo to buy bread, hoping to get ideas for a comic: serendipity, birds and bread have interesting ways of intertwining. https://www.mundomendo.com/thedayiwentsearchingforbreadandanideabutbumpedintoazakkyo

El gran dibujante y compañero @luismendo.com da por cerrada su etapa de su newsletter. Una pena, ya que compartía cosas muy interesantes. Pero aunque sea una despedida tambien es un nuevo comienzo. Nace su proyecto www.mundomendo.com. Espero que le vaya genial! 🔗 pencilbooth.com/takes/ee0365...

Do I prefer to spend a whole day trying to draw a face until it looks good for a few bucks, or would I rather be sitting in a badly lit office 8 hours a day, in exchange for more money?

A blast. Caro Carrowack book was launched last weekend at the wonderful Dover Street Market Ginza with a party filled with wonderful (and stylish!) people. Very grateful to author @djbradfield, the great DSMG (stars!) and everyone who showed up and bought the book. THANK YOU. Photos by Alex Abian

Finally we got our hands on the finalized RECORD and BOOK, these images don't come close to how pretty they turned out. To be launched officially this weekend at Dover St Market in Tokyo, now Caro Carrowack is finally alive. Thank you @djbradfield.bsky.social for allowing me to work on this.

✨Updated the BOOKS section of my site to accommodate most of the books I've worked as an illustrator/author.✨ It's not easy since the kind of books and my role in them can be wildly different. Have a look and let me know if you see something's off.

We all both carry a cross and have a life story our neighbors don't know much about. It would be nice if we'd all realized being angry to each other makes little sense. More empathy starts by knowing the other's story and by listening without judging.

Very excited about this action figure "we" are making of Caro Carrowack. Fantastic Japanese craftsmanship by Kitan Club. This is the main prototype before production and painting of course. www.CaroCarrowack.com

Born in SF, came-of-age in Italy and crossed oceans as if they were puddles. @carocarrowack is half adventurous, half entrepreneurial, a tiny bit egomaniacal (until she’s not) and 100% human. Available on CaroCarrowack.com and from march 29th for sale at Dover Street Market Ginza (Tokyo).
