Ballerina Dream

Minsan ang artist madaling mainspire, minsan naman hindi… For a long time I waited for this feeling to come. This artwork is for a special friend who’s at same feet as I am towards dreams in life. But the difference is that she loves ballet/dancing so much, ako naman arts. The intensity of passion is the same and we wanted to unleash those talents, moves and actions for our dreams to come to life once again.

She said:

On my pointe shoes…
That’s where I want to go,
Poised upon one magic toe…

keep on dreaming,keep on believing that one day i’ll be back with my pointe again. missing u sooo much..! so damn sad…haiz…those days….
–just a ordinary ballerina–

Here’s one for you.

“Ballerina Dream”

“I wanna dance and be back on stage again with my tutu and pointe…i miss the crowd saying “bravo” and before the show begin:say a lil’ prayer and shout “break-a-leg” and give it a ONE BIG SHOT! smmmiiilllleeee (‘_______’)my life is dancing…”

..ackieRhaine..

*dont be sad! we will make it!

LESSONS FROM THE PAST.

"The Gemini"


We often asked "What is life?"; "What is Love?"; "What is Life after the meaning of your life is gone or when your love ones chooses a different path?"; "What ? What now?"; "What is the Truth?"; "How can you get away of the pain and suffering?" There's a lot of questions in your head and everything is unanswered.

But somebody told me one thing and that is to do this first step and everything will be alright and you can be happy again. Its a long process but doing this will begin the journey in searching for the answers in your questions. This powerful word is "Acceptance".

In any tough journey, you will always find light in the darkness when you seek for it. The best way to seek for answers is to experience. You need to pray and listen. You need to suffer and recover. You need to ask questions and find out answers along the way. Therefore, you need to struggle in order for you to learn.

Letting go is accepting everything what happened. Its accepting that you have weaknesses and that makes you human. Its accepting that you've given everything but not everything is in your control. Letting go is accepting the truth, and that truth really hurts. It is living with the pain and learning to heal. Letting go means you have a lot of love to give and that also means let your love ones to be happy in the choices they made, even if that means total sadness to you. Letting go is leaving your comfort zone. Its facing what is difficult and uncomfortable. It's being courageous. All of the things you've been afraid of is happening and you have to face it. Letting go is accepting that love needs to grow and it will whenever, wherever it wanted to. Love needs to be treasured but always prepare to let it go when it needed so. Love is only real when given and shared it without expecting anything in return. Letting go is remembering the past and acknowledging that you've both given all you've got for each other. Memories of love will never die. Whatever you do to prevent it, you'll never succeed. It will just past through your mind. It is embracing the thorns of love and bleed. The scars in your heart are the manifestation that you've given real love. Letting go is the beginning of your forgiveness. It means accepting that everybody is just human and human beings aren't perfect including you. Letting go is never the end of anything, but rather its a new beginning of everything.

Love is ironic in many ways. You keep it but you also need to let it go. So letting go is merely part of life... Letting go will give birth to a new meaning in life and that's the truth. Accept the truth and be free from everything once again.

Awwwwttttssss!

A doodle on my sketchbook said...."awwwwttttssss!" Nothing great about this picture, but lot of pain. Yes, it F$%ckin hurts men! Deformed and dumped like a piece of shit. Don't worry that piece of shit is made out of special clay. Whoever touches it will reform it. ( The more the merrier :D ) There's a lesson in every "awwwwttttssss!" in our lives and it will make as a better person. Without pain you can't appreciate happiness :) There's nothing to worry about, especially if that will mold you into something greater :) So love the pain. :D its part of it.

The Odd Portfolio: The Genesis

This is the actual book and cards now. It's been 3 years ago since I published it.

So when did it all began? Why did it called ODD?

It started back on college, when we have a portfolio requirement. I've done several studies of the look and style of my portfolio. Basically, the main concern was categorizing the numerous works I have done. Its important in every portfolio to present it not only in a proper way but also in a creative manner. That's when the creation of the surreal characters began. I used this odd drawings to represent each chapter of my portfolio. These artworks were inspired by my different roles in real life: As an Artist and as an individual. These are the following:

1. The Loving Sibling

Well, according to my sister, I'm a home buddy and kind sibling but sometimes stubborn too. I knew how to listen to their problems and very helpful at all times. This is the first chapter on my portfolio wherein you can find artworks I have for my family.

2. The Keeper, the Friend

I can say that even though I've got few friends, those friends were truly treasured and kept like a gold. You can find some artworks here for my friends.

3. The Dreamer

Everyone of us has a dream. My first love is painting and I dream of being a great painter when I was a kid. This dream kept on bugging me every time. I know one day I will be that person I'm dreaming of. This star will never ever die until it served its purpose to shine in the universe. In this chapter, you will find my drawing and painting activities.

4. The Free Lover

What does it mean to be human? Loving and hating; two important things to feel you're human. You'll be able to feel the wonder of loving, if you've been hurt and hate before. Many have said, if you know how to love, you must also know how to let go. Real love is not selfish, so always prepare to set it free and to let it grow. You'll see some works about love in this chapter.

5. The Steward of the Land

Where there is love for your country, there is hope for everybody. Where there is love for the nature, there is a better place for everybody. In this chapter, I gathered all of my contest pieces about Youth, Nature, Growth, Success, Democracy and Positive changes in the society.

6. The Lost Christian

Everybody is a sinner and have at least lost in their lives spiritually. I consider myself lost but at least I'm trying to put some good directions. Its not easy to travel into that path but its not too late to anybody who believes in Him. In this chapter, you will find the works I've done for my local church to glorify God's name.

7. The Insomniac Jack

Multimedia artists were equipped with a lot of knowledge at skills in Graphic design, Web & Interactive Design, 3d & 2d animation, Motion Graphics, Videography, Directing & Editing, Photography and Manipulation, Marketing & Advertising, Drawing & Painting. That's why were like Jack-of-all-trades, but it doesn't mean we don't have specialties. I'm a restless person and enjoys work that's full of creativity. In this chapter, you'll find a collection of works in multimedia arts.

8. The Inner god

As an person, you have that inner self that needs to be praised and served also. Love and know yourself better and you'll find the real purpose of your life. You'll find some personal drawings in this chapter.


Well, that's about the different roles in my life that I have used to categorize my portfolio. Everybody has its own different roles and stories in their lives, and above are all that matters to me. (God, country, family, love, friends, myself, dreams and career)
