The co-founder of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.intellectualpropertyprints.com\/\" title=\"daniel rolnik intellectual property prints\" target=\"_blank\">Intellectual Property Prints<\/a> then contacted me to let me know that I was part of his &#8220;dream team&#8221;. I was happy to join what became an exciting art show presented at Flower Pepper Gallery in Pasadena, California.<br \/>\nHere is what Daniel has to say about this art project:<br \/>\n<em>&#8220;I believe there is a wonderful connection between a work of art and the artist that created it. So, I have travelled the globe to put together this all-star group of artists with positive attitudes, happy hearts, and beautiful images that I can&#8217;t wait for you to see! YAY!!!&#8221; <\/em><br \/>\n\u201c\u6625\u201d, the Chinese symbol of Spring was the logo of the collective exhibition presented from March 1st to April 4th 2014. Artists such as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/michael-c-hsiung-obese-hairy-men-drinking\/\" title=\"MICHAEL C HSIUNG Interview with the LA artist\">Michael C. Hsiung<\/a>, Ellen Stagg or Erik Flores were among the other artists in the Season Of Spring art show. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mega-daniel-exhibition-flower-pepper-1.jpg\" alt=\"flower pepper gallery pasadena\" width=\"800\" height=\"603\" class=\"aligncenter no-border size-full wp-image-7301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mega-daniel-exhibition-flower-pepper-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mega-daniel-exhibition-flower-pepper-1-550x414.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mega-daniel-exhibition-flower-pepper-1-398x300.jpg 398w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Working process behind the art show. <\/h3>\n<p><strong>Learn how I created my artwork for The Season Of Spring exhibition. <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Daniel sent me two sheets of 8&#8243;x10&#8243; art paper to make original pieces on. <\/li>\n<li>I drew two original artworks on the pieces of paper. <\/li>\n<li>The gallery displayed the art pieces in clear plastic bags. <\/li>\n<li>I included one of my limited-edition screen print poster as a special bonus. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mega-daniel-exhibition-flower-pepper-2.jpg\" alt=\"artwork for The Season Of Spring exhibition\" width=\"800\" height=\"630\" class=\"aligncenter no-border size-full wp-image-7302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mega-daniel-exhibition-flower-pepper-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mega-daniel-exhibition-flower-pepper-2-550x433.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mega-daniel-exhibition-flower-pepper-2-380x300.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>What did I draw for the collective exhibition? <\/h3>\n<p><strong>Read this little back story about the original drawings I did for the exhibition. <\/strong><br \/>\nThe drawing with the character is a part of La Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 Des Griffeurs series.<br \/>\nLa Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 Des Griffeurs is an ongoing project in which I told the story of a group of suburban kids who go live deep in the jungle of Borneo.<br \/>\nThe title of this artwork is Jangal Thag. Both the words Jangal and Thag come from Sanskrit language. The meaning in Sanskrit was similar to the one in modern English. I find it quite amazing that the spelling hasn&#8217;t changed much while traveling history and continents.<br \/>\nYou can see other examples of La Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 Des Griffeurs story in my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/i-just-murdered-the-alphabet-art-project-by-mega\/\" title=\"I JUST MURDERED THE ALPHABET | Solo art exhibition in Paris by Mega\">solo exhibition in Paris in 2012<\/a>.<br \/>\nThe second drawings is a letter work that reads Chiale B\u00e9b\u00e9, which is French for Cry Baby.<br \/>\nThe handmade font work is both a veiled reference to the 90&#8217;s movie with Johnny Depp and a personal message to a fellow artist.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mega-daniel-exhibition-flower-pepper-3.jpg\" alt=\"detail for the group exhibition by Daniel Rolnik\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"aligncenter no-border size-full wp-image-7303\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mega-daniel-exhibition-flower-pepper-3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mega-daniel-exhibition-flower-pepper-3-550x309.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mega-daniel-exhibition-flower-pepper-3-500x281.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Why did I use cheap ballpoint pens? <\/h3>\n<p><strong>Read this funny story about why I chose to use the cheapest ballpoint pens to create the original drawings. <\/strong><br \/>\nSome times before I started my drawings I had a talk with a fellow artist.<br \/>\nShe explained me how important it is to have the perfect tools to create artworks. She told me that she was spending most of her money on buying expensive pens and brushes.<br \/>\nThis artist wouldn&#8217;t create any new piece unless she had the most expensive brushes or pens.<br \/>\nI come from a modest social background. I now live in Indonesia where I have to create with what is available around me. So I totally disagree with what this artist said and thought that this exhibition would be a good opportunity to prove my point.<br \/>\nOn the next day I went to the local mini mart to grab the cheapest ballpoint pen. The price tag was about 0,30 USD.<br \/>\nI hope that you will enjoy the result.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/season-of-spring-exhibition-opening.jpg\" alt=\"opening night of The Season Of Spring\" width=\"800\" height=\"451\" class=\"size-full aligncenter wp-image-7306 no-border\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/season-of-spring-exhibition-opening.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/season-of-spring-exhibition-opening-550x310.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/season-of-spring-exhibition-opening-500x281.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><br \/>\n<small>The opening night of The Season Of Spring was a big hit with tons of art enthusiasts coming to Flower-Pepper gallery. <\/small><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7305\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7305\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/season-of-spring-exhibition-daniel-rolnik.jpg\" alt=\"The Season Of Spring artworks\" width=\"550\" height=\"386\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7305\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/season-of-spring-exhibition-daniel-rolnik.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.ilovemega.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/season-of-spring-exhibition-daniel-rolnik-427x300.jpg 427w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-7305\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Daniel Rolnik posing in the front of The Season Of Spring artworks.<br \/>\nCheck my drawings in the top right corner.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><em class=\"newfont\">Did you enjoy the drawings I did for The Season Of Spring show?
