Here we have Dayaks wearing Masks that represent their Guiding Spirits and Great Hunter Ancestors. Oh yeah, and one that wears a boar mask. Hmm, I wonder what will happen next? Share on Facebook]]> Dayak Masks

This is a Dayak/Chinese family cooking in their wooden hut kitchen. During the Japanese occupation of Indonesia (1942-1945) many Chinese-descent families fled into the jungles of Borneo.

This is a Dayak/Chinese family cooking in their wooden hut kitchen.

During the Japanese occupation of Indonesia (1942-1945) many Chinese-descent families fled into the jungles of Borneo. My grandparents’ families from my Mom’s and Dad’s side did the same. Most of them are merchants, thus they have to quickly pick up jungle farming and survival skills.

They traded with and received help from the jungle people, the Dayaks. Of course, many inter-marriages happened. So I have some Dayak relatives still living in Borneo.

Some interesting facts from the photo: It was taken around Indonesia’s Independence Day (Aug 17th), and the year was 1974. It is one year after Bruce Lee’s death, which explains the two ‘Bruceploitation’ movie posters hanging on the building.

This was based on a photo of old Indonesia (Pontianak, West Borneo) to be exact. But anyone who’s been to Indonesia knows that this scene, though perhaps a bit rarer now, can still be found in the slums and in the more rural areas. I might color this soon!   Share on Facebook]]> Indonesia Snapshot

A drawing of a scene in my upcoming comic! This is using Manga Studio. I was feeling fed-up from doing the thumbnails of this comic, needed a break from ‘writing’, and just to let loose on the art. I’m pretty happy with how this looks, might use this style for the comic! Share on Facebook]]> Surrounding Demons
