It's been sometime!!! Wow 1 year and some change.. man. I missed you all and as you can see I'm changing up the focus of this blog to not only be a space for my art and experiences but, to really be a place of inspiration. I've been through much since my previous post and I will share more about what happened to me during that long break away. I praise the Lord Jesus for the cross and the restoration he's bringing in my life. I've never been more excited about the future he has for me and I'm begining to come to terms with thing of the past and how he used those things to prepare me for his great work. I've recently become a big fan of Francis Chan. I discovered his book Forgotten God last year and saw a portion of his DVD. This clip is from Crazy love and I thought it would be a great precursor to the new beginning for the ABL blog. Don't sweat though fam! I'm still drawing and will post my new works. God's doing great things and I'm joyful for all that has in store for us!<br /><br />I'll be back a few!<br />-BrandonStudioRisingStarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15673556132810005715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7370400181927025450.post-20285284549292478162010-04-27T21:27:00.001-07:002010-04-27T21:28:31.312-07:00A Dope Quote pt 3 for 2010...<h3 class="UIIntentionalStory_Message" ft="{"type":"msg"}"><span class="UIIntentionalStory_Names" ft="{"type":"name"}"> </span><span class="UIStory_Message">"Plan B sucks.

I'm expecting an excting and prosperous year! Things are going to change for me and I'm ready to make that change. I'm fasting and I have no internet at the moment since I've moved so it will be a bit quiet for some time. Don't worry I'm going to be back with new stuff! I wanted to post this gift illo of my favorite christian band from my church known as THRIVE. THRIVE is a very inspiring and fantastic spiritfuilled rock band that has really inspired me to be a better person. These young people are touching lives when the play the same way I wish to do with my own art. So keep an ear to the ground for them and keep me in prayer. God's up to something for us yallz!

I'm Back! Happy Belate Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas!</div><div style="text-align: center;">I hope you had a fun Black Friday because mine was just well...BLACK!</div><div style="text-align: center;">It rained while I was at work, I found out I have to move from my new place, and I'm not going</div><div style="text-align: center;">to be going to Florida for work at Seaworld. Ugh.. The Devil's startin' up mess again!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Well I heard one of my fave Christmas tunes at the Park. It was a cover of WHAM!'s " Last Christmas". I loved the song when I was kid! My sis was a big WHAM! head back in the 80's.</div><div style="text-align: center;">So I did an illustration/speed paint inspired by the song. Check out the youtube link and listen to the song and look at the pic. To be honest it is a bit true for me. As much as the I love Christmas , I often feel sad about not having a relationship. I would give my heart and only have it turned away and it's been like that since I was young. So related to this song especially with current events in my life after my Mother's Passing. So Enjoy..</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">-SRS</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>StudioRisingStarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15673556132810005715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7370400181927025450.post-81736006831588335512009-11-19T11:05:00.000-08:002009-11-19T11:16:55.873-08:00Wonderland / DTRH featured in Golden Gate Xpress<div style="text-align: center;">Wonderland and Down the Rabbit hole where featured in Golden Gate Xpress last week!<br />I was interviewed for the story!!!

I got the urge to do more Batman Begins/Dark Knight themed sketches. So I went after my fave villain of all the Joker and one Batman Rogue who always messed with me Two-Face. Just for fun I did a chibi version of Joker. I was imagining the Joker as a young, smart, hip and mad Emotional Hardcore Kid. Mostly I did it for the hair, that hairstyle is just so cool and at the same time it's a bit menacing. Two-face I was just trying to get really creepy with it like my previous Scarecrow. Well I hope you all will enjoy these I have more to come soon with a full report about Wonderland and Down the Rabbit Hole. Thank you for all your prayers and support. It's a big challenge to morn a loss, have financial problems, trying to find another job, family challenges, and moving. Yet thankfully they are not to big for God!!! I'll be back this week with more. Thank you all again.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>StudioRisingStarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15673556132810005715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7370400181927025450.post-20205280818832905672009-10-12T15:24:00.000-07:002009-10-12T15:55:24.352-07:00Down the Rabbit Hole: Wonderland hit's San Francisco this weekend!!<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(52, 20, 115); line-height: 18px; "><div class="post-body entry-content" style="text-align: center;border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 1px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 1px; border-top-style: dotted; border-right-style: dotted; border-bottom-style: dotted; border-left-style: dotted; border-top-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); border-right-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); border-bottom-color: rgb(220, 146, 255); border-left-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); padding-top: 10px; padding-right: 14px; padding-bottom: 1px; padding-left: 29px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.75em; margin-left: 0px; ">Hey everyone! How goes it? for the past week and through out the year I've been collaborating with film maker<b> Jonathan Fung</b>, Artist <b>Monika Jones</b>, Artist <b>Eric Otto</b>, and <b>Mark Lee</b> on a very exciting art installation called <b>Wonderland</b>. <b>Wonderland </b>is an art exhibit that was created to bring a lighter face towards one of San Francisco's Oldest and Impoverished District's "The Tenderloin". Several Artists from around the nation and globe are working on this landmark exhibit. My team's installation titled <b>"Down the Rabbit Hole", </b>which is a installation that confronts the social issue of Human Trafficking . We were fortunate enough to be donated a room by the good folks over at YWAM in the Tenderloin that was exactly what we needed to make this happen. This past week, we were busy painting the walls before we move in the furniture this week.</div><div class="post-body entry-content" style="text-align: center;border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 1px;

I've been having some hard times as of late and I've come to the decision that I have to get away for a while. I won't be posting up for sometime ( don't worry I'll be back).<br />I need to take some time away from the net to get things together. If you wish to contact me just email me. Thank you all for your support!<br /><br />I will see you all soon in the near future with new art,<br /><br />Brandon Robinson<br />StudioRisingStarStudioRisingStarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15673556132810005715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7370400181927025450.post-16662024901593051272009-09-10T12:13:00.001-07:002009-09-10T12:13:10.436-07:00Switchfoot- The Loser<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><p><object height='350' width='425'><param value='http://youtube.com/v/qDcnpGFwSEc' name='movie'/><embed height='350' width='425' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://youtube.com/v/qDcnpGFwSEc'/></object></p><p>Sorry for the long pause in posting. I'm working at the LA County Fair this week! Come visit me at Kaman's Art Shoppes I'm the only short guy working! <br /><br />Well I don't recall posting this song before but this another Switchfoot song I love but, it really got me thinking about the meaning of this song. Being a Loser is a very interesting concept. Commonly we look down at the those who we consider losers because of their personalities, social status, list of mistakes, failings, finacial status, physical features etc. If your an american you know this concept because it's been raised with us since we were children to not be losers in society's view. Yet Switchfoot turn this common idea around to something amazing. What if being a Loser was actually and is actually one of the best positions? Some could take this the wrong way but, they are not making a cynical joke about being successful. <br /><br />Consider these bible verses:<br /><br />Matthew 6:20-21 (New Living Translation)<br />20 Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. 21 Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.<br /><br />1 timothy 6:17-18<br /><br />17Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. 18Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. 19In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.<br /><br />We're so trained to go after Success. We've been told to get the best educations, jobs, homes, spouces, and other things that we call "Successful" and look down at those who don't measure up to society's standards(Losers). Yet in this song and in God's word he tells us that the Loser's will ultimately be the winners in the end because they have nothing in this world and for that they have a home in the Kingdom of God! They don't have to keep up with the Jones' , worry deeply about status,<br />or what the world/ people think of them. In a way they are free from the great slavery that so many people in my country are bound to. I've learned and experienced all this in my early 20's and up today. I couldn't measure up to the standards of my parents, my culture, my industry, my religion, and for that matter my world. I'm the greatest of Losers and I have nothing good to offer this world and all the more why I rely on the hope of my Savior.

An awesome list of East bay lowbrow artists take it back to the academy in the Highest Lows. The challenge was to create art using classical fine art techniques with subject matter that is commonly found in Low Brow Art. I've been waiting for this show since Boxed In closed and we're all excited about it! Please come and check out this amazing show from May 16th 2009-June 13th,2009. The opening starts at 6pm-10pm at 419 Georgia st. Vallejo, Ca 94590.<br />I hope to see you there for our young galleries second big art show!<br /><br />-SRSStudioRisingStarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15673556132810005715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7370400181927025450.post-59073054352971404372009-04-27T11:46:00.001-07:002009-04-27T11:46:05.415-07:00tatsunoko vs capcom gameplay hd<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><p><object height='350' width='425'><param value='http://youtube.com/v/6YiImyk8DPY' name='movie'/><embed height='350' width='425' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://youtube.com/v/6YiImyk8DPY'/></object></p><p>Man this game was beautifully executed!!!<br />Shinkiro's concepts , the 3/d enviorments and the animation are fantastic!

Will my artwork finally be seen in the world?<br />Will I finally get good money for my hardwork? The struggle continues as I'm stuck in between being a loser and being respected. This is one of the worst places to be and after 2 years of being in this place I can't help but be frustrated. My family is never supportive of what I do unless it's convenient ( like when I was in the town newspaper in promoting this show and our gallery). People support you and are proud of you in the big shiney moments but, they treat you like crud in the not so glam moments. These are such annoying days full of contradiction. Days that are both happy and praise worthy while being hard and trying. When will these times end? When will stability come in my life in all areas? God please send some rain in my life because I'm dying in a spiritual desert...<br /><br />(photo by TRDMRC, thanx G!)<br /><br />-SRSStudioRisingStarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15673556132810005715noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7370400181927025450.post-53576070993474678742009-04-02T11:24:00.000-07:002009-04-16T06:19:12.881-07:00Success and a future music legend visits Vtown!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi02_1yQM-IvfQICExFWP5SD-ixyAfcJKyX9vFXm6rad6XWpSO0dF4S6L_RrvLxQQFhh9jb2XiLPs0h47sugi40GFnv-jFUKdDWEvLwPasbakttGPCmAni_Tpng00Sh6sUSgf7QL2UKTNs/s1600-h/kids.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi02_1yQM-IvfQICExFWP5SD-ixyAfcJKyX9vFXm6rad6XWpSO0dF4S6L_RrvLxQQFhh9jb2XiLPs0h47sugi40GFnv-jFUKdDWEvLwPasbakttGPCmAni_Tpng00Sh6sUSgf7QL2UKTNs/s320/kids.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5320162405143293346" border="0" /></a>Individual Collective Gallery's opening was fantastic! We opened to a whopping 300 people that evening! What made the day even more sweet was the attendance of my close friends Marcus "TRDMRC" B. and and my buddie Shamara "Super Shamario" ! They had a great time seeing the works of IC and eating a Elaudio's Mexican Restaraunt across the street from the gallery. It's really good to know and have friends of yours who have a genuwine interest in art come to see your work. I was glad to see them there and enjoyed riding with them to the show and taking them home after. There was more great art from the show that my friends did but unfortunately my camera sucks ! So check out my bro and fellow IC member Albert's professional photos from that night at <a href="http://alamphoto.weebly.com/2/post/2009/03/individual-collective-opening-night.html">Alamphoto.com</a>!<br /><br />Thanks my friends and viewers for your support!StudioRisingStarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15673556132810005715noreply@blogger.com0
