Sugabelly was one of the blogs I started reading on Blogsville. I was hooked by her passion, love for her culture and Nigeria, and of course, her illustrations. She makes me really wish I was an artist .(I'm always green with envy anytime she has a drawing update). She is well known for her work on Nigerian Fiction and Nigerian Blog Awards. She also came up with the widely popular Language Challenge which I'm too chicken to enter.
You can see a lot of her passions (e.g. for Nigeria, culture and natural hair) through her illustrations. She's got a story behind each one. She even names some characters and all this makes you feel like you understand what was going on in her head when she was creating them. Also, she describes the drawing process on her blog which makes it even more interesting when you see the finished process.
Yup! Big fan of her work. I don't know she does it, but it is good.

Quick question: what is the girl with the headphones doing? yes, the one squatting down in the 6th picture
Yeah Sugabelly's cool. There is no doubting her talent. I hope she gets a commission to do something really big soon. Can't draw a straight line so much respect, lol.
