fiberpok : a short introduction of artist please
cubepixels :i am ray rubio in real name a.k.a. cubepixel on the net, 23. webdesign instructor and loves to draw and
paint.
fiberpok : let's dissect the artist more shall we, what's your preferred style, the tools you use and your view on the
local and global graphics scene.
cubepixels :generally, i prefer undetailed ones. heavy manipulations is what makes me feel like a master of pixels. i
normally start with 3D studio max and Poser for my design....
cubepixels :then later on
cubepixels :brought to photoshop for final rendering
cubepixels :heavy layer manipulations will be done to the extent of losing my RAM's brain.
cubepixels :Local and international digital artists doesn't made any variance i think,
fiberpok :why?
cubepixels :we all play the same game, the same canvas, same idea that dominate the internet's design community. in
fact, many local artists are recognized worldwide for a number of reasons and uniqueness of their design, one of those is
www.halfproject.com
fiberpok :speaking of recognition, you've been famous for the coin design that you made for the 9-11 coin design
contest sponsored by Corel
fiberpok : :)
cubepixels : :)
cubepixels :heheh
cubepixels :that was real great.
fiberpok : on the next question, you said earlier that you like to draw and paint, which medium do you prefer when
making traditional ones
cubepixels :before i went into digital designs, i am delving myself into 'real' canvas using oil and paintbrushes.
during my high school years, i won the very first national award of YMCA's logo making contest held in baguio. oftentimes, i
am using pastel (craypas) elements for the posters i made in some of my projects.
fiberpok : you really are famous
fiberpok : ;)
cubepixels :hahhaaha
cubepixels :lol
fiberpok :i notice your works venture more on abstraction
fiberpok :why?
cubepixels :uhmnn... intriguing works of mine, [lol] it made sense to me in general. abstract designs are really hitting
my head all the time, even when i was in high school, i never do detailed creations execept for the times of necessity. i can
see my passion of art in abstract creations, thus making me feel satisfied after a couple of hours or say days of work in
every project.
fiberpok :speaking of your works
fiberpok :you have them displayed at cubepixels.com
fiberpok :what can you say about your online gallery
fiberpok :as well as the whole site itself
cubepixels :with new sections called 'rubikcubes' and 'renderfarm'
fiberpok :any word of advice to aspiring digital artists
fiberpok :??
cubepixels :inspire yourself through collaboration with other designers, learn to play different platforms of graphics
applications and draw down your wildest creations from your mind.
fiberpok :and who's the baddest designer of them all?
cubepixels :hehehehe... talk to yourself buddy. i can see that title from you.
fiberpok :lol
fiberpok :come'on
cubepixels :lol
fiberpok :forget that question
cubepixels :hahahha
fiberpok :the best president the philippines ever had?
cubepixels :i should say it's Cory Aquino.
cubepixels :**dont ask for more why**
