Tasty Icons: 500 hand-drawn food icons
My latest icons set is finally out. It took a couple of months to paint and prepare everything, and it was totally worth it.
It’s huge, it’s delicious and absolutely awesome.
500 hand-drawn food and restaurant icons – anything from kebab to tiramisu, guacamole and sushi, chorizo and shiitake. It was tough, because while 500 good icons made it into the set I had paint around 700. But I guess, I’m just a foodie.

My favorite songs of 2014
As we are getting further into 2015, it’s a bit late to make “the best of 2014” list. But I needed time to digest and summarize last bits and pieces, because 2014 was very fruitful year of musical exploration. Some songs in this eclectic playlist might be not from 2014, but I’ve discovered them only recently and they became a part of my musical year.
Interested? Check out my favorite songs of 2012-2013.

Hong Kong Neon Signs
Chinese neon signs are some of the most beautiful things in the world, they are one of the reasons I decided to move to China. Recently I’ve found this cool project that glorifies neon signs of Hong-Kong.
www.neonsigns.hk is an interactive, online exhibition dedicated to exploring, mapping and documenting Hong Kong’s neon signs.
There is very handy map that helps to locate and categorize neon signs of the city.
These are just few examples…

My Favorite Songs of 2012-2013
Some time in the end of 2012 I’ve created a playlist of cool songs, I was listening to at the moment. Later the list was extended to 2013, therefore it combines some songs from 2012 and all through 2013. Some of the tracks are older then 2012, but I’ve just discovered them, so that’s when they started their existence in my life. No more introduction, just music.

House numer plates
In a part of Beijing where I live there are a lot of old red brick buildings. They all look pretty much the same, but number plates. Oh, those number plates! It’s amazing how different they could be. Two building next to each other might speak with totally different voices.
One day I spent couple of hours walking few blocks around my house hunting for those plate. Check it out!
