A while back I had an offer to print an artbook in order to promote a newly opened printing service. They requested 152 pages of artworks, which is pretty much gave me a heart-breaking revelation: That I dont have 152 pages worth of artworks!!!!

What the heck was I doing all these years? Have I been slaving to clients that I dont even have enough artworks I could proudly present as "my own"?

Tragic.

So I ended up in a situation where I will do nothing else but create! My deadline to submit "152" pages was in 3 days since my offer... Sounds impossible but It had to be done for my sanity's sake.

Fortunately for me I got another 2 days extension to work things out... I had to keep churning out new artworks and expanding on some old ones within the short timeframe. 3/5 days I kept wanting to give up, but thankfully I've gotten a lotta push and support from the people around me.

In the end, having to create 20 new pieces in 5 days is ridiculous... So eventually I negotiated to reduce my page count to around 96.

Voila! I have my very own artbook! with plenty of new works to upload on this blog :)
