2012 was a very busy year for me. Sorry for the lack of update. I wish I could do more of my personal work in upcoming year! Best wish to you all and always loaded with maximum creative juice!

Happy new year 2013!

Just came back from Malaysia for three days. I completely exhausted from an awesome moment in Comic Fiesta 2012 last weekend. That was an insane amount of people! Sorry if I couldn't talk to you guys properly because of dizziness. Thank you everybody who visited Asuka111 Art & Lazy Rhapsody booth. We're really appreciated.

I would like to apologzie for anyone that couldn't buy my book before it's sold out. The response for Sketchbook Project was totally unexpected. As for Everyday Fantasy art book, it was completely sold out and that's last copy! Maybe it's a time for second artbook?

For anyone who're interested in Sketchbook Project, you can order it here:

Looking forward to see you again in Comic Fiesta 2013! XD

Booth information and floor plan coming soon.

Hi there!

I have came back from US since last week. My quest to SDCC and sight-seeing around LA, San Diego and SF was completed.


SDCC was totally stunning. I'd say it's the largest convention that I ever attend to. I was in spending-spree mode and completely broke now. lol.  Thanks to for hanging around with me there. I'm really appreciated!


It's nice to visit deviantART HQ and meet people who're behind this community. Thank you to for taking care of me. I was a bit shy so I couldn't talk much, but I love to be there. It's an inspiring place.


Also, Thanks for guys in SF ( and ) I would like to spend more time there. You guys are so inspiring. I'm still wondering that was a summer in SF, right? (*bought another jacket* Brzzzzz)


A great trip indeed. I wish I can make it happen next year, too.

Sorry for not update my journal for a long time. Busy as always.

I have a very tight schedule since April because I have a plan to visit US during July 9-20, 2012. Will visit Los Angeles, San Diego (for SDCC!) and San Francisco.

Feel free to say hello if you see me there. XD

Hello folks, long time no see!

After the end of flooding crisis in Thailand, it's the beginner of my work schedule crisis. So, that's why I couldn't keep a regular update here at dA, also, have no time to create some personal work. That's awful.

Another news is I have a plan for trip to US to attend San Diego this year. But, I'm still researching about how to attend that event. If you have any advice about it, please enlighten me. (lol)

Finally, I've just try to open my fan page at Facebook here: [link]

Today is my birthday. Usually, I don't cerebrate this special occasion. But this year is different. I have decided to have something special. I would like to enjoy the serene moment and throwing away all of my life 's burden for today. Sharing the time and hanging around with my friend.


...and here I have the most highest birthday ever

at 'Moon bar, Bayantree hotel 59th fl., Sathorn Rd.'






We ( me and friend ) sit together and enjoy the most beautiful sunset ever. It is rarely to see the sunset around my house in the suburb area of BKK.  When the sun is gone. I see the gorgeous twinkle star from the city below. They are artificial but beautiful.





The drink here is a bit expensive. But the experience there is priceless. Thank you to my friend, who suggest this place for me. Let's visit there again!
