AUTHOR'S NOTE
quay revolutionary Sao Mai was named by my mom! she's named after her favorite flower, hoa mai, which is known for being resilient during winters. having to draw all of these panels and come up with fun compositions was incredibly challenging, but I think it totally paid off.
I have very strong feelings about AI and modern day usage that sanitizes art and writing altogether. let me know what you think happened to sao mai in the end!
