Handmade drawing I did for my solo art show at Sergeant Paper gallery in 2012<\/h2>\n

This artwork is a new character I drew by hand for my new series and my next exhibition.
\nFor this project I filled every artwork with some of the best hip-hop quotes ever.
\nEvery character is unique and is part of an imaginary gang I call the Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 Des Griffeurs.

Medium used: Hand-drawn with silver ink pens on 160g acid free art paper.<\/p>\n

Character 2 | Original handmade drawing for my solo art exhibition I Just Murdered The Alphabet<\/p><\/div>\n

Look at this face. Oh my god they\u2019re gorgeous
\nHANDSOME BOY MODELING SCHOOL<\/h2>\n

Some people look at the characters I draw and they say that I am inspired by japanese folklore.<\/strong>
\nOther people say that I must be inspired by the indonesian culture.
\nOther say that this is a modern take on african tribal art.
\nI tell them it’s Mega.
\nMy characters are simply gorgeous.<\/p>\n

Move cause we\u2019re in a mood to fight
JUELZ SANTANA<\/h2>\n

When I tell people that I based my studio in Bali, Indonesia, they always tell me about how lucky I am.<\/strong>
\nCoconut juices on the beach. Great surf. Magic mushrooms. Tight bikinis dancing in the front of colorful sunsets… They obviously talk about another reality.
\nI prepared this series by locking myself in a room. I am drawing everyday from the moment I woke up until it is late enough to join my girlfriend in bed.
\nI don’t have time to meet my friends, to do parties, watch TV, or anything else. All I care about is my art, and I intend to stay focus until I’m on the top of the world.
\n“Sir, another coconut juice please.” Just kidding…
\nMe and my characters are in a mood to fight.<\/p>\n

Better get \u2018em, where you at bro?
J DILLA<\/h2>\n

Today I woke up with a lot of emails I need to reply to. <\/strong>
\nInterview requests from magazines, blogs who tell me about a review they just posted<\/a>, collaborations requests, and more. You name it.
\nI’m always hungry for more, and love to read your feedbacks, so don’t hesitate to drop me an email<\/a> when you feel like to.
\nOn another hand, I recently started to collaborate with Lost At E Minor<\/a>. They asked me to post reviews about stuffs I like. So if you produce amazing and inspiring artworks, feel free to contact me.
\nTalk soon.
\nHave a Mega day.<\/p>\n

Brain dead flow
LIL WAYNE<\/h2>\n

My brain is dead.<\/strong>
\nMy hands are well alive.
\nI use them every day to produce inspiring artworks and slick drawings.
\nAt least I try to.
\nI hope that you enjoy my productions and feel inspired by my fonts experiments.<\/p>\n
