How it all started
Prelude (2020)
L's World
In 2020, almost two years after we had our first child and amid the outbreak of the first wave of COVID, we decided to create illustrations for Elle. These pieces were crafted using Alyssa's favorite mixed media—watercolors, pens, and pastels—later enhanced with digital refinements in Photoshop. The project, however, went on hold in 2021 when we were blessed with a second pregnancy and arrival of our second child.

The one-shot tells the story of Wehu and Wisa, where the line between what is seemingly nonsense and insightful becomes a playground for our creativity, inviting readers to question and contemplate the meanings behind the absurdity.
