    🔖 Google’s docuseries on cybersecurity: “HACKING GOOGLE”

    Found this link from my colleague as he shared it on the office’s Slack watercooler channel:

    Meet the hackers keeping you safe online

    Cybersecurity and cyber safety have been a pretty hot topic lately and most countries now waging war by attacking each other’s networks.

    And no, hacking is not always about monitors with a black background and neon green texts tittering across the screen. Yes, hacking is really technical, and as a reminder: Just be really careful when there are some Internet “funsies” asking you questions such as:

    • Find our your gemstone from your date of birth, month, and year!
    • Find out what type of kitten you are by sharing with us your mother’s maiden name!
    • Poor Mr. Wiggles need friends! Quick, share with Mr. Wiggles the name of your first pet!
    • You are not gonna believe what we find on Google Maps! Enter the street name where you grew up here!
  • Peachtober Day 9: Boulder

    Peachtober Day 9: Boulder

    I learned the misty background from my coworker, Caroline. She’s joining Goatober on Tumblr, and on Day 4, she made this drawing with misty forest background and it was so pretty! I decided to try on today’s drawing.

    There are some areas here that I would love to fix, especially the boulder’s texture. Maybe in another time ?

  • Peachtober Day 8: Mask

    Peachtober Day 8: Mask

    This is a really simplified version of Indonesia’s Barong Bali. I made this in a rush, and while I feel I can do more, I’m actually pretty happy with how it turned out.

    For those who are not familiar with Barong Bali, the actual costume is waaaaaaay more elaborate and grand than this drawing. Also, the costume itself is really big. The dancer who’s holding the headpiece has the whole body covered down to the toe. In this drawing, I made it simpler and smaller to focus on the mask aspect.

  • Peachtober Day 7: Potion

    Peachtober Day 7: Potion

    The option was either “a healing potion” or Yzma’s llama potion from “The Emperor’s New Groove” ?

    But yeah, I enjoyed drawing this one.

    While I made this, I listened to this song (and a couple other songs) to keep me in the vibe.

  • Peachtober Day 6: Trees

    Peachtober Day 6: Trees

    I was hungry and I wanted cakes, and it inspired (???) me to draw this… cut-looking (?) scenery (??)

  • Peachtober Day 5: Bow

    Peachtober Day 5: Bow

    I’m actually aiming the prompt “bow” in terms of gesture (bowing) which shown by the mouse, but just to be safe, I’m adding a bow (ribbon) on the present. This work is largely inspired by Beatrix Potter’s “The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin”

  • Peachtober Day 4: Tiger

    Peachtober Day 4: Tiger

    I wanted to draw a tiger who is dreaming of the moon.
