Picture
Hello
My name is Lina, I was born and raised in Jakarta, Indonesia. Now residing in sunny Singapore. This website is like a diary of things interesting that I found in my every day life, also my drawings.

When did I start drawing?
As long as I can remember! I have pencils, papers, colored pens/stationary everywhere. I stopped at certain point in my life because of other commitments but always return back to drawing.

Do you have other interest other than drawing?
Rubber stamp carving, any kind of DIY projects and cooking, but recently, frequency of having these activities greatly reduced because I'm focusing more on drawing

Favorite Color
Love most pastel colors

Favorite Manga
Doraemon, Sailor Moon, & Dragon Ball are the first manga that I read when I was young. I actually enjoy reading both Asian/Western type of comic. Any good recommendation of good comic/manga? Please let me know!

Favorite Game
I love simulation type of game that never ends, and I will stop when I got bored. I played few games like Harvest Moon, & Animal Crossing. My current favorite, The Sims 4

Creative Process
I am inspired by every day situation or activities. I draw a lot of comics/illustrations that describes what happened in my daily life.
