Break days... Just thinking away...

2012-01-20T00:44:00.001-08:00

Lately I been on a roll with my masterpiece of a project. I been drawing in the morning, on my breaks and much at work, and at night until past midnight... As of now I still feel like drawing the crap out of my arm. Interesting that I have the fires in my eye. I guess I really want to be anywhere but here at the moment. So far my imagination has been my safe haven of peace. My life has been chaotic at the moment. Learning to deal with it is a tricky subject. I can't find the flow to make life easier and I guess I am just off beat with my brother, work, women, and my manhood. I been on edge lately due to just the frustration of not having the power to be where I want to be. Basically what is on my mind is the student loan that my parents are paying monthly and to include that is just interest only... It is all my fault. They believed in me and I have not got anywhere so far and it burns me up to not be able to find a job that can pay for my everyday needs and loan. I felt a little cheated coming out to the big city chasing my dreams but not knowing anything about the world. I was such a clutz of a guy. Believing sighing four years of college I would get out and graduate with a nice job to take care of ky family. I so want that but life is not that easy and so I had to learn that the hard way. Los Angeles is one mean city to broke kids coming out. Rent cost as much as a house back in my hometown. A wallet is a mans confidence this generation. People can say love is not about money but that can be true but money buys time. Time to me is everything and i am wasting it away trying to be free again. All these debt sure feeds the monster they call depression. It grows within you and makes you lose site of who you are and what you want. When you lose that sight for so long. Love and happiness gets even further only because nobody wants to be around a negative person. Nobody wants to feel sad... It is not healthy. Anyways... To make this short. I rediscovered myself. Fuck all who doubted me, for the girls that I was not good enough for I will be better, and to myself. Not to let people step all over me. The end.

So Far So Good!

I am up working on some artwork regardless if I have work early in the morning tomorrow which is technically today. I just launched my new webpage yesterday or was it two days ago and finish my "Porkchop Walk" today... The one I been procrastinating on so much because of the tedious line work involved in it. a free wallpaper to hand out. It is about the innocence of kids and confusions of the tainted adults. We all can relate in a way. As for my I see it as we got to try our best to raise our future generations to be... Well there is no wrong or right answer but raise them with love. :D Enjoy everybody!

My Thanks!

2012-01-10T00:16:00.001-08:00

I know I know.... Again have I drown into the dephs of life. I thought I can stay above the water forever but it is clear to me now. I can't promise that ever again and life is just a fucking crazy random rollercoaster. I did put up a front telling everybody I was alright and didn't want to bother and bring anybody with my negativity.... But I got to say and admit that deep down in me I just wanted to share my life with. To be alone in a crowded space just feels so fake. So here I am again out of the abyss of a shit hole I struggled to crawl out of trying to reach for the stars and to where I belong.
I overcame such a shitty luck, being broke most of the time, horrible day job, getting back stab, losing a loved one, and a love that stabbed my heart. I was very unhappy for a very long time and lost sight of who I was or who I wanted to be but yet ultimately as a man. I went through by living lifeless to cope with my everyday annoyance, anger, and frustration. Oh man working at Staples was a shitty ass job... Some inconsiderate customers really know how to suck away happiness with their bitterness and to top it off I got my car jacked and heart crushed. I wondered how I was going to get through stuff sometimes. I lived my day playing ny role but I wanted to say thanks to the people that been there for me through the thick.
I want to personally thank my brother Andry for always sticking with such a crazy older brother that I am. I know I been a pain but I just didn't know how to deal with my frustrations. Randy, for helping me be honest to myself. Though that was a painful ride it sure helps me be more aware of my actions. Thids, for cheering me on and showing me appreciation with her words of wisdom. A crazy goofy girl whom I never met but interesting enough her charisma lifted my spirit to strive for the skies. I guess you call that a kindness from a stranger as she taught me or was it shared an article about it. Glad to know that there are people out there that still cares. Little things that are important and we all probably need that to get by. So I learn we are not perfect and invincible to an extent and we all need help from each other. Hopefully we can all encourage each other to be our better selves. That is my New Years resolution btw. Goodnight!

My Pondering Thoughts

2011-08-31T05:35:00.000-07:00

So I come to realize life is just an obstacle thrown at you by the wheel of randomness and that love is a timely puzzle. So it is our job to accomplish or solve the stage or problem given to us. Ain't that a bitch. I mean I am good at puzzle games but I guess we just got to do it! We need to focus our minds and fortify your resolve because one day when you earn the soul of a samurai then you can claim to be bad ass that can do anything your hearts desire. As for me... I am still a chump just thinking of how to be on top of the game. These are my thoughts but I wish I had a luck, a plan, or even a shortcut to get there but when you break it down just pure hard work is the thing to maintain your status and to carve you into the elite beast your suppose to be. Blah!

As for love... I am no expert in anything I am telling you girls to me are hard to understand as individual in this generation. Too many options and opinion... I just don't get them. Sucks that I am no Alpha male but I only can guarantee that I would be one unique guy. Sure every guy is different but I am sure my mind is something else in a normal and cool sense. Lol!

Out of the Abyss Part 2

2011-08-28T16:19:00.000-07:00

Okay!!! Here I am talking about me getting myself out the shit hole I was in before. I am now in a nice dumpster. Lol! My mind was in a very bad state. I didn't even have the time to do any artwork at the time so how can I get closer to my dreams if I don't get the preparations ready. I was stripped away of life and it fucked me up. I be the character from the video game sims. All my work asset are good but my social and health part of my life... Fucking zero. lol! the character goes nuts if you don't make him chill with his buddies or get some ass. Lol! My tip in getting successful though I am not successful yet but experiencing the failure in life so I would be a stronger man. Take care of yourself in a nice balance way the best to your ability. Treat your body like an expensive Temple with your rules on it.

Out of the Abyss! Part 1

2011-08-23T17:12:00.000-07:00

I'll try to keep this as short as I can. I just felt like I crawled out from he'll the past couple of years just working my ass off to just live. I really never had time to do any artwork or even had the luxury of eating something good. It was hot dogs, eggs, cup noodles, spam, rice, and corn beef day in day out. Shit that was a horrible diet. at times I really thought I was going to be stuck like that forever. I didn't know when I would snap working at Staples but the kiss ass and customer service for idiotic and rude of group of people in the Santa Monica area was the opposite of an ideal job. I guess you got to know the bottom to know what is on top. I was so broke my social life was even gone. I just couldn't have a girlfriend or go out and have a life like everybody else. My pride and stubbornness wouldn't let me kneel for help even from my parent. I smiled and told them I was fine though I was in a shot hole. All the student loan up my ass, bills, bullshit, and the unhealthy life style made me very sad but I am glad I had a few friends who always stuck by my side to help me out the dumps. Thanks to Randy, Hannah, and my family there was light at the end of the tunnel. I just never gave up and my luck arrived. my life is a little better now. I can even have a girlfriend if I wanted to. Yet I forgotten the pain that can lead to just a couple of times already. Geezzz!!! Anyways to sum this up. I think the best way to success is to keep yourself happy and healthy so I started working out again. My arms gotten a little bigger. Lol! I got to get my body ready for them ratios. Anyways to be continued...

So there is an app for blogging now. this will make my blog updates more easier to do. Now my thought and artworks can be share in more of a convenience to my fans and followers. It was really hard to post stuff up if I hardly go on this. It be cool if this was linked up to my Facebook somehow since I am always on that everyday. My only social life beside open gym dodge ball games on Sundays and Wednesdays. :) anyways trying to catch everybody with the least amount of words... My life has been everywhere. I went threw an adventure of a life so far. mostly chaotic and frustrating but I have grown a lot from it. don't know what I grew but I am not the same artist I was a while back. Not many people but I feel like a lot of artist draws from experience and the depths of passion in there life. If an artist doesn't feel the character then he or she is drawing something that can't feel. Lol! trying to come up with a quote. anyways more to share next time. Tooo sleepy. Goodnight!!!

Here is one of my latest masterpiece. Thought I do a parody of one of my favorite games. Enjoy!!!

A long journey

2010-11-13T12:08:00.001-08:00

Sorry to why I haven't been keeping this updated. To be honest it is hard to concentrate with all the distractions in my life now. The non social part of my life is eating me up. I realize my time here in LA and the OC I yet to make that much friends locally. Anyways.... I am going to try to work harder to overcome this feeling of frustration in my life. I don't have any game plan but I guess I will work with the only tool that I got and will do what I do best and that is art. I envy those who have close friends and have the power to easily attract people to them. They seem so happy. Don't get me wrong I do have close friends and family but most of them are far away. I I am looking for that buddy who will stick with me to the end type of deal. Well maybe if I work long and hard enough my hard work would pay off for the poverty that I am in. I want a place of my own. A place of sanctuary that way I can work on my art freely without the distraction I am in. Once that is fix maybe I can get a girlfriend which will help me be a little more happier. Once I get happier maybe I will be out more and I might run into what I been looking forward too. Anyways to make up for my year long away vacation. I did some art work... FINALLY after the struggles I have been in. Here is one piece of art work that I have done. This was motivated by a friend who I was trying to cheer up and her name is Dabie. ENJOY!

I haven't posted up a blog in a long time... Uhggggg... Thanks to the month of May. I mean all these Birthdays, my friends wedding, my friends from out of town visiting me, and my transition to being full-time at my day job at Staples... What a bummer!!! I still wish I can just get paid doing my art. It is a very hard task because I have to worry about trying to live in the LA area. It is so dam expensive here.... Life is tough... What can I do? Some people just have the fortune and luck while the others have to work their asses off to just obtain a portion of what they have. One day I dream to break these rules and pass a message to the future generation to live smart and free. :D

I know I haven't talked about to how I got to the OC area but I will one day somehow. Anyways a quick catch up about me I just been working on a bunch art and designs on t-shirt hoping to make bank off it. It turns out my friends and everybody is broke or they just don't like my designs. Thanks to society6.com and spreadshirt.com they have made it possible for me to do so. I have no technical side to me to do the store on my webpage even though I can learn it requires too much time that I don't have. I will be air brushing and oil painting soon. Hmm.... I got to figure out how to market myself at the same time squeeze in some art time to share with the folks. It is very hard to to fit my free time while serving a bunch of cranky old folks at Staples.... To what I do there if your are wondering. I do the price auditing there. I have to make sure all are prices are correct and we have new sales every Sunday through Saturday. It is crazy that I have to constantly change the prices and end up getting told off by an old man because of the small details about rebate. Yeah! people don't like that shit but that is how companies make money right? I also assemble chairs, check our inventory, and best of all customer service. OH MAN!!! I need to escape this cycle. I really don't want to be dealing with spoiled, cranky, and illiterate people for the rest of my life. Well if I hate it that much then I will do something about it right? well That is my update in short... I will try to post up more later.

Mermaid Hero Wallpaper FINISHED!!!

Bought My First Airbrush Kit

2010-02-07T12:51:00.000-08:00

YAY! So I finally bought my first airbrush kit. It cost me about 140 bucks to buy one. I was wondering when I will get one. I just can smell the money coming in. After all the hard work of selling stuff on Amazon and all the sacrifices in order to get a little richer and to gain a little more freedom. Well I wanted to share the good new with you guys. I know I am not a pro yet but with just a little bit of practice I will be really good since I already know about color and how to draw. LOL! I will be making custom airbrushed shirts to canvas paintings and will be selling to 50 to 300 bucks.... Depending on the difficulty of the work. :D I will try to make it a reasonable price because I know we all broke. To my customers and support don't buy my stuff if you are broke. LOL! Buy it when you know you have money and are willing to support this starving artist to your convenience. So here is the airbrush kit I bought. :D

Refugee Nation

2010-02-02T13:38:00.000-08:00

Sooooo I went to a free showing of "Refugee Nation" at UCLA yesterday on February 1st Monday evening. I got to say it is a great show you guys. It is very inspiring. Great job and great performances my friends Ova, Lelani, and Lidet. These guys are true warriors and not to forget about the L.A.O organization Leslie put up together at UCLA. Not many people know what Lao is or where Laos is and just to let you know I am lao. This is an awareness program to teach and bring together a fallen community. Laos was once known as "The Land of a Million Elephant." I hope I am getting this right. lol! sounds cool. Just imagine that! Well I would love to share more of my experience with you but you got to see this for yourself. Put your heart into it and don't let us forget who we are and support us so here is the site and info about this wonderful group. Now I am lao and proud not Laos and proud. lol!

Sharing My Work on Blog Spot!

2010-01-16T05:50:00.000-08:00

I just wanted to share a little of what I do to those who never seen me animate or just logged on to my blog spot. This is a sample of what I worked on when I was in Red Giant. What is Red Giant you may ask? It is a where a bunch of students work together on a single piece to present to big name companies or etc. I got to work on Miguel Puga's "Monster PD." I was one of the flash animators and character designers so I hope you enjoy this piece and don't go bashing your head against buildings because of this. LOL!

Still Having Errors!

2010-01-12T12:24:00.000-08:00

I am still having errors on my page. LOL! well It looks like I will be done by tonight or tomorrow. Everything is fixed and updated except for the things that are still in progress. Who ever thought that making a web page is so much work. It is a good experience for me so I will know what to expect but this doesn't count on a professional resume... Bummers dude! So I got to fix my video pages so it stays consistent with the whole web page layout its self... My other obstacle is the game Starbound.... I don't know what is wrong with it. The scripting is good. maybe my upload got corrupted somehow. I wonder... Well those are my next problems to fix....

Anyways other news. I will look that up by tonight. As far as my web page goes... It looks like I have to keep updated on Twitter as well. Good thing I got this program called Trillian. Great program for people who have multiple instant messaging service while all your friends have different ones. I wish they would all stick to one thing. LOL! Oh yeah! I will share a sample of my free wallpaper from my webpage to the blog spot users out there who might eventually and maybe and hopefully cross my page one day. :D

P.S. I will get to that story... LOL! It is just a long story to talk about and I got very little time. :P

My New Web Page!

2009-11-21T22:22:00.000-08:00

My new web page is up. I still need to fix some errors on it and will do when I get the chance and not to mention I didn't forget about what I wrote in my previous blog. I will eventually write about that incident I got into about my struggles when I get the chance. It is just hard trying to make a store, work, be sick, take pictures, draw, think of idea, have girl problems, have everyday problems, being organized, and it just goes on... I am just a one man army lol!

I wish I can be like Naruto and make massive amounts of temporary clones of myself. HAHA!

Well I will try my best to keep my web page updated. Compared to last time it my new web page now has features that gives you a reason to stay on my web page while the old one was like look and leave kind of deal... I wanted to share the cool new features that I am about to bring and that is... My own very new online comics I will be updating every 5 weeks or so depending on how busy I am and they are Sketch Fighters and Sweet Tooth Madness. LOL! I now have a store that will be selling my paintings when I get the chance to put them out, artwork, used games, used books, and etc. Back to my webpage... I now got games for your bored souls to play while my old web page didn't and I will eventually make one of my own games in the distant future. The other feature on my web page is my blog of course... Lets you get an inside look and learn more about the inside man with all his starving days, hardship, and his everyday life who will eventually make it big one day. :D

An inspiring note for the future young artist: One thing I learned. Lucky breaks never comes if your just sitting at home waiting... You can't depend on no body but yourself sometimes and do what you thing is right and that maybe doing the hardest thing in your life such as for me I had to let go some of my good friends who held me back. Sometimes time is all you need to do what you got to do. Work hard work and diligently my friend because all that effort will never betray you because I had some friends that trusted so much cross your path and did things I never expected them to do. So you got to have faith and work super hard. That is the only escape for the ambitious from this everyday boring day life.

I come to realize after all I do is work work work. No creative freedom, no laughter, and no fun in my everyday job. I thought to myself I can't die like this. I don't want to live by check to check. I don't want to struggle for food or figure out how to pay rent or budget for next months rent by sacrificing some meat. I really got to do something with my life in order to escape living unhappily. When you live unhappily for the rest of your life then to me that means you are not living and just being a service to misery. Have respect for yourself and be free. Do what makes you happy! Everybody must feel like this sometimes. I feel like this all the time at my everyday job. My face just goes angry bland, i zone out, and time just goes by in a blink of an eye. I want to value every moment of my life so that is why I am working hard now. I really want to be free. So after getting stabbed in the heart in the front and the back that is when I realized. This is a dead end and there is no where to turn back too. I will find no happiness here. I tried my best to find love. I tried my best to find more great friends like family but I want more. I have such a big ambitions that it can not be contained. So within time all my creative aura will leak out and put smiles and amazement upon your souls. LOL! thanks for reading my randomness. I would of kept going but I got to sleep and go to work then work at home which is the fun part. :D

Welcome Back To Blog Spot Tony!

2009-11-07T23:36:00.000-08:00

Hi everyone I am back on my feet. I will get into detail of what I went through on my next posting because of my time. First of all I want to express that it is so good to not having to eat a pack of peanuts for breakfast, lunch, and dinner or eating cup noodles, vienna sausages, can goods, or any of that cheap under a buck junk. It is great eating meat when you’re starving. Sorry for the vegetarians. My body was getting frail so I had to get my proteins and my omegas in lol! Well I hope a little bit of my words can give you a since of the other side of my art. Thanks for reading and I hope you will follow my blog as long as possible. I will try my best to keep you updated on the importance and life changing events that happens in my life. Take care…
