Last month I was asked by Stephan Rosger, an Interactive web, communication & marketing designer to come up with a piece of illustration for his newly launch site, the theme given is “surviving the urban jungle”

Right now I am having paintings (sumtin old and sumtin new..) displayed at Calabash Bistro and Lounge (Basement Level Lounge)…So far I can’t complain since I’ve sold more pieces through there than I’ve ever sold any at galleries. Besides my art, check’em out for great Caribbean & Island flava cuisine!

Every once in awhile when I slacked on the updates, I always have some random messages from people msging me ” Hey still alive?” or ” Wassup with the site….you quit doing art??”

I love it how random people can sound so demanding considering I have no direct connection to them….are they really hungry for more of my creations or are they trying to see if it’s worth the time to spam my site??

In anycase, there are new pieces added to the Illustration section now.

The one shown here should be a fairly familiar image to anybody living in Vancouver especially after that new bogus HST tax they laid on us like nobody’s bizness….

Who Remembers the movie….

I ‘member when I first saw that movie, I thought I was on drugs and I didn’t know anything bout Drugs (of course back then I was only 4 …)

Anyhow, here’s a peek….

There will be a possible promo giveaway with ShogunGamer coming up….stay tuned!

Stereotypes series I

RollersStudio — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 14:25:14 +0000

Other than the usual hustle, I’ve been steady building some more concept art pieces for my port folio, such as the latest piece in illustration section titled “Stereotypes series I“… It is a CA piece depicting some typical urban stereotypes (from L to R): Dope Slinger, Cholo gangs, Aspiring MC, Neighborhood Hustlers, Back-packing graf writer.

#### May 7 updated### —-> I have added development sketches to this post and the gallery

April 2010

RollersStudio — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 14:17:16 +0000

It has been a soul-searching month, also been trying to stay busy…

..with some portrait pieces that are available in prints…

Also I think recently I was pleasantly surprised as in how many random viewers of the site started just hitting me up over email. Some with proposal to do commissioned piece but even after I consistently follow up with them, they ended up nowhere to be found….didn’t think I said anything wrong….or did I?

….God must be listening to my unofficial prayers recently when I was getting mad stressed with my last job, he decides to take me out of the misery with having steady income and put me on the free agent roster (for the non-sports junkie, i.e.: unemployment)…so I right away put my free time to use and here’s some more new stuff.

I have been getting alot of responses, not necessarily positive since the content…(*Warning* if ya a feminist or a child fronting as over 18, don’t get agro on me when you get upset or aroused seeing them). For instance the new “…???” piece is about pushing the boundaries: using less to say more…in a visual way. The fellas would know what I mean.
