Christmas Advent - Acts of kindness

It's December again! Can you believe how fast this year has passed? I hope you've had a wonderful year so far. Starting on the 1st of December I will be sharing with you my Illustrated Christmas Advent on all my social media channels Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest. This is going to be my fifth year designing it and this year, besides creating an illustration I want to invite you to do a small random act of kindness every day. 

A few months back I started volunteering with a charity called Cause Corps hosting a workshop to make sock toys for children. They organise many activities such as making beanies for premature babies and writing postcards for sick children and the aim of the charity is to encourage people to do good daily. Inspired by this, I want to encourage you to do some small act of kindness wherever you are everyday. For me Christmas is all about giving and I think that being kind is a wonderful gift because we spread love and happiness to the world and this year especially we need more of that.

Feel free to share this advent with everybody!

Merry Christmas! Hope you have a wonderful day :)

Christmas Advent 24

Hurray! We're finally on the last day of the advent so tomorrow will be CHRISTMAS DAY! Thank you so much for joining me on this Christmas Advent countdown/ adventure. I hope you enjoyed as much as I did. 

Here's the complete advent! Which one is your favourite?

Christmas Advent 23

Another cute animal for today's advent... well, for me all animals are cute (even if they sometimes have rabies) specially if they're fluffy and have little tiny human-like hands :)

Christmas Advent 22

Only two more days to go!

Christmas Advent 21

Foxes are so adorable! I've heard about foxes eating rubbish in London, but I'm yet to see one. 

Christmas Advent 20

I love seeing the ginger bread houses they display on bakeries and shopping centres. I don't think I could eat such beautiful decorations ;)

Christmas Advent 19

We need more of these things for the upcoming year (and all the time for that matter) :)

Christmas Advent 18

Santa is on it's way! He's riding a little flowery donkey... let me know if you spot him ;)

Christmas Advent 17

Birds in their house. I'd love to have one of these when I have a garden.

Christmas Advent 16

A snowball for today's advent :)

Christmas Advent 15

More flowers and birds for today's advent. I never feel tired of drawing them because in nature there're so many different kinds of them that it's easy to feel very inspired. I dream of having a garden in my house but that's not likely to happen in HK - not with our tiny flats and super hot weather. I'm glad that we have so many small public gardens in the city that are well cared for all year round. 

.... and because it's Thursday, I have a new video in my channel, unboxing a subscription box I got for my birthday. I hope you enjoy watching it and don't forget to subscribe to my channel :)

Christmas Advent 14

Do you know what alpacas and I have in common? That we're both from the Andes, so I think we're like cousins :)

Christmas Advent 13

A couple of geese for today's advent :)

Christmas Advent 12

Today is my birthday! I wished for rabbits but real rabbits poop a lot so I drew this 2 who are poop free :) Hope you're having a nice start of the week

Christmas Advent 11

Lots of flowers for today's Advent :)

Christmas Advent 10

I've always wanted to draw a little village in the snow, like a fairy tale. So here it's my version of it :)

Christmas Advent 9

This red horse is galloping towards the weekend! I hope you're having a great Friday :)

Christmas Advent 8

It's Thursday so that means that I have a new video on my YouTube channel. Today's topic is Suggested books for creatives. Here's also my Advent for today :)

You can watch the video below. I added english subtitles because I realised that in some parts of the video I mumble a little bit - Sorry about that guys, but making this videos is out of my comfort zone and I get a little nervous every time I start shooting. I'd love to hear what are your favourite creative books! Please tell me in the comments here or in YouTube.
