Red Planet

Uploading my first dribbble artwork!

This is a doodle of myself as an astronaut. I've dreamt of becoming one since I was 7, and stayed outside for long hours in the evening just looking at the stars, carrying an old encyclopedia that felt heavier than all of my weight then, to refer to the only map of the constellations that I had in one of its pages.

Fast-forward to 2017, when real-world designer me tried getting in a G-Force Astronaut Trainer Ride in the NASA Exhibit at the Singapore ArtScience Museum, and came out of it almost vomiting my brains out, was the only time I realized, this profession is not for me. I guess I'll stay a designer drawing myself as an astronaut instead. :)

Thanks to @Pixelwolfie for the invite!
