Ninja's appearing everywhere

Yo fam,

Check out the ninja monkeys causing a fury all over this hoody!

It's for a co-worker's daughter. It's cool to think that someone will be wearing some of my art.

Sorry to those hoping to get one for the holidays (which is probably just me) , but this is a one of a kind custom hood... at the moment...

Ninja Monkeys... the gift that keeps on giving.

Virgin 2.0 Art Show

Yo Fam,

The Virgin 2.0 show at the Ritz Ybor, was fantastic. Great Art, Great Music, and a packed house. If you haven't, I suggest you definitely check out a Square One event.

I had a great time and met some really cool people.

Below are some pics taken by my parents who decided to show up and chill for a while.

Some happy fans of the art.

Me and my Pops

My Mother and I (Look how proud she is)

Alright, well as I always promise. I should have some art updates soon. Let's see if I make good on my word.

99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall.

Yo fam,

It's been a pretty hectic, well... couple of months.

Here's an update for all three people that read this blog. (Two of which stumble on here by accident)

The "99 Bottles of Beer on The Wall" Art Show was this past Thursday at the Skate Park of Tampa. It was an event to kick off the Tampa Am, and the proceeds went to a charity called "Boards for Bros" which makes skateboards for inner city kids. How sweet is that?

Some really awesome bottles were on display. A big assortment of bottles all painted by artists. To read more about it check out Chad Cardoza's blog. He was the mastermind behind this event, and a ridiculously cool dude.

Here's a couple shots of my entry:






This monstrosity is a pair of beer bottle-nunchucks, with an image of a ninja monkey on the base holding the bottle-chucks and Yes, one of them is smashed. Is it art? Is it just junk? I don't know, but one thing is for sure. It was fun and very dangerous to hold. Don't eat finger foods after playing with glass shards... trust me...

Until next time folks,

Canvas 4- Best one yet

Hey Fam,

The Canvas art show is finally over and went off beautifully. The coffee was good, the music was great, and the art was fantastic. I would like to extend a thank you to everyone who decided to stop by and take a look at the art being displayed.

Thanks to all the cool people I met, the people who came to support me and a special thanks to Mike D, Bobby Triplett and Element church for making everything happen. Here are some pics from the show.




And below is the art I brought to Canvas 4, for those of you who weren't able to make it to the show. Enjoy!





The monkeys both sold. The next three are character sketches for a Flash project I'm working on. I'll give you more info as it gets closer to being completed. I still like the robot the best.

Peace and God Bless,
Angelo

The busy life of an artist.

Alright, so I've been pretty busy as of late, but I figure I'll take time out for my daily... I mean um, weekly... I mean uh, Monthly... Almost monthly... rarely... Occasional. Yeah that'll work. I'll take time out for my occasional update.

Canvas 4. I will be featured there. Been working on new stuff for that show. Check it out at CANVAS813.com.

On top of that I've been doing pre-production for a new web cartoon, which I'll more info on soon. The website for it is currently undergoing construction.

Art update coming soon. Huge Art Dump will follow Canvas 4, which is Friday, Sept 26, 2008. If you're in the Tampa Bay Area. I highly recommend checking out the gallery. It's for one day only, so make sure you check it out.

A new beginning

Hey there fam,

I've decided to restart my blogger. This is now the spot where everyone, (especially potential employers) can look at my work. I figure the best way to introduce myself would be with an art dump. So enjoy, and give me feed back.
