One of my most memorable experiences so far was to meet Simone Legno in person. He is the artist and creator behind “Toki Doki“, an international designer brand for cute and punky Japanese-inspired goodies.
His success was one of those things that inspired me to push forward with my dream and passion of becoming a full-time artist.

Adios also got his head signed!

Another brand which I once stumbled upon online and like was “Bloody Bunny” so I was surprised when I saw them at the convention.

It feels good to be able to meet people you look up to. It made me realize how normal and reachable they actually are and it motivates me to work harder on my passion. Well it’s not actually called “work” if you love what you’re doing. It’s more like “play” actually. 🙂
