La Rosa Muerta

Born and raised in the San Gabriel Valley of Southern California, I had a very multi-cultural upbringing. This allowed me to be influenced by a number of cultures and belief systems that tend to show up in my work, whether it be conscious or subconscious. I grew up always being around some form of art, either Chinese brush paintings on some relatives or friends wall, graffiti art along the 10 freeway during the early 90’s, or just good old-fashioned American illustration in children’s books and comics. As I grew older art and music became huge influences in my life and also kept me out of trouble. Soon the two became one when doing illustration work while in and out of school. Art school gave me the fundamental tools of drawing and painting, which you could say were beaten into me by a method of classical training. However, school also taught me everything I wanted to rebel against which I think helped me shape an artistic style. Right now I’m just trying to get recognized to gain more exposure so that I can actually make a career out of drawing and painting. Thank Locally owned and operated gallery and retail environment with a focus on the "unconventional" artistic outlet, limited edition collectibles and whatever else catches our fancy. Constantly changing space that adapts to the whims of our featured artists and "pop-up" vendors. A Munny is a figure created by Kidrobot and made out of vinyl with movable joints. The initial idea was undertaken by taggers/ street artists/ street art designs and toys from (illegal artists) who have come to bring back their work legally to the public to display their works. The figures are blank and the owner can decorate them using pens, pencils, markers, paint, and other supplies. Alternatively, some people commission artists to design Munnys for them, or artists design them to sell. In MUNNYWORLD, you can do anything you want! MUNNY, BUB, TRIKKY, RAFFY, and ROOZ are the soft, super smooth vinyl figures that make up MUNNYWORLD. Each one is a blank canvas, and all ready for scribbling, piercing, painting, posing, piling, dressing up, and sculpting into forms straight from your imagination or you can keep them just as they are. See how great you truly are. Do amazing things and create more than ever before. And, most importantly, have fun with MUNNYWORLD
