Meeting the Manananggal by Mark Anthony Cruz

Marco Meets the Manananggal

This is a concept illustration from my wife and I’s pet project, The Lost Land of Yehey. This scene is Markus' first encounter with a manananggal (vampire-creature from Filipino mythology). You know what, I draw this kid getting scared a lot…I guess it stems from my love of scary movies and vintage horror.

Ganda-Ganda Advert

Here’s a quick little illustrated advert for my wife’s blog, Ganda-Ganda. The word “ganda” is the short form of the Tagalog word “maganda (mah-gan-dah),” which translates to “beautiful.” So basically her blog name translates to “beautiful-beautiful.” She’ll be posting tons of photos of all our travels, eats and holiday themed goodness. So drop by her blog and tell her how much you like it!
