About Me

1 of 4

Hi, I'm Cy. Nice to meet you!

I'm a self-taught (and still learning!), AAPI and queer artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

fxt soba is the small business I run by myself. Founded in 2019 as a humble storefront on Etsy, I quickly began expanding my items and ventured into selling at in-person events. The slideshow above features pictures of my table/booth over the years at some of these events.

As a sticker addict myself, I sell mostly stickers but variety is the taste of life. Other designs I offer include keychains, prints, mousepads, air fresheners, standees, microfiber cloths, and more!

I enjoy creating merchandise that I personally love; reflecting the spirit of nerd culture and the community in fandom is something I strive for with my creations. I focus in Asian influences heavily concentrated in the pop culture medias of anime, manga, K-pop, and video games.

Art is something we are constantly surrounded by in our lives. I've always wanted to explore that aspect of life. By challenging myself to improve my technical skills and push my creativity despite having no formal art education, I can embrace my possibilities. Potential is always there but it is up to us to chase it.
