As much as I love art and designing, I don't think I fit for being a graphic designer. Not to discourage anybody, but I don't see myself composing work for the rest of my life. I realize that most of the work I do in class involves hand-drawn illustration incorporated into a computer generated medium. I am highly recommending illustration as my field and looking forward to all the possibilities it has to offer. It was a pleasure to be in the CG class and I hope that everybody prosper in the years to come.

More Live Painting/ Benefit Concert
About 3 weeks ago my Friend Malissa asked me if I wanted to be involved in her benefit concert and I agreed (without realizing how much work she wanted to do). I thought it would be a great opportunity to expose my work and even launch my clothing line.

Before the show, she wanted me to paint two of the artists performing that night, so I went on MySpace to look for these underground hip-hop artist and end up with these low quality picture:
[Propaganda and Zane 1 from Tunnel Rats]
Since the day she asked me to do the show and till the day of the show, I finished the painting through finals week and here are the results:
I also made a few buttons/pins for merchandises but my t-shirt didn't go through. I realized I should have consider the legalities of starting a business before making the designs.

The event was a huge turn-out, the restaurant was packed, sold some paintings (most of the profit went towards the benefit), and I got lots of reference/business card from "clients".
I don't have any pictures of me painting at the show; I'm still waiting till my friend send me them.
I'm extremely burnt out, and I'm ready to hit the sack.

Painting in Watts
(Jnkoe and me)
Two weeks ago my friend John Estrada called me to help out with a commission mural in Watts. We started the mural early morning and ended mid afternoon. The wall was getting too hot due to the heat and the acrylic paint was drying too fast so weren't able to blend the paint properly. We dropped the paint brush and begin doing some "aerosol art" at the other end. We covered all the vandalism with our pieces and the neighborhood really appreciated our work.
