A NEW book and a NEW cover!

/ Art & Comics / , ,


Two years later, I am able to redeem myself… 😤 (I’m probably the only one who noticed this)

THE DO-OVER: FRIENDSHIP GOALS is our newest middle-grade graphic novel, out October 14! This one’s more centered on Zoe, as she tries to balance her time and energy between the new True Colors Style Club and the school’s soccer team. If it sounds similar to my own life, that’s because it is!!

This is another joint effort from me and Rodrigo—we worked on the plot together but he did most of the writing, and then I did most of the drawing, with Rodrigo doing the backgrounds and color flats. This time we went more loose and wacky than in the first book, throwing lots of little gags that made us laugh, so we hope it puts a smile on people’s faces!

Infographics for a total lunar eclipse

/ Art & Comics /

Got the chance to make some infographics for Planetario USACH again, this time to explain the total lunar eclipse that happened earlier today. I’m particularly proud of the third image—saying “friday at 3AM” got a lot of people confused (“is it Thursday night or Friday night???”), so in a last-minute flash of inspiration I decided to add a timeline to make it reeeeeally hard to get it wrong. It’s very simple, but I think it gets the point across!


Did I watch the eclipse? I tried, but I stayed up until 2AM and then I was so exhausted that I gave up and fell asleep. Oh well…

My 2024 Planner: Hobonichi Weeks (3)

/ Organization, Reviews /

Happy holidays! 2024 is almost over, but I wasn’t gonna let the year end without my ✨ yearly planner post!! ✨

This is my third year in a row using the Hobonichi Weeks (here’s my posts for 2022 and 2023). There’s no big changes in how I used it compared to previous years, but there’s always little tweaks to the system as I find what works best for my needs 🙂

Tamagotchis and the joy of making things

/ Art & Comics / , ,

About a month ago I sent in the final pages for the sequel to The Do-Over. I still have to finish the cover and some final details, but we’re mostly done with book work!! 🎉 Time to…do something else? catch up with things? rest…??

In that context, me and my friend Gaby decided to go to a local Tamagotchi fan meetup! When I told Rodrigo about it, he said “what if you make a zine to bring to the meetup?”, and I was like…what IF I make a zine to bring to the meetup?? And so, in a little under a week, I came up with this one-page zine about my Tamagotchi collection:
