A baby harpy tears her way into a shell that isn’t hers—and feasts. Curled in the stolen cradle of a not-yet sibling, she gorges with feral delight, yolk dripping like honeyed gold. This piece began with the word gastronomy, but quickly spiraled into something messier, more instinctive—a celebration of hunger in all its sticky, greedy glory.

First Born, First Fed imagines a cute but grotesque mythology of survival, where the first to wake is the first to devour. Call it brunch. Call it betrayal. Either way—she’s still hungry.

Kristal Melson is a Singapore-born illustrator whose emotionally charged work blends bubblegum sweetness with brute strength, rendered in electrifying colour. Often tangled in botanical forms and quiet chaos, her illustrations explore the emotional weight of memory, nature, and personal myth.

When she’s not drawing plants with feelings, she’s making prints, painting walls, or thinking too hard about how emotion lives in line and colour.
