“Annie Lou is a second generation Filipina raised and influenced by the many sights and cultures of Southern California. Always creative as a child, she discovered her natural talent for painting while in high school.
In college, she discovered oils and became instantly enamored with the many different techniques to manipulate the classic medium…”

Originality comes hand in hand when an artist embarks or creates a new style. With no fear of what the audience would think, the artist moves forward in insight and curiosity. Hoping to accomplish the visual look that the artist may desire. The artist is then subconsciously bending the boundary line between fine art and “low brow” art.
The artist I am referring to is Retna, a world famous aerosol artist from the Mad Society Kings and The Seventh Letter collective. His unique style of a brush stroke technique along with an aerosol can, can be identified from miles away. Similar to artist Chaz Bojorquez. Retna has developed an intriguing formula that many are still trying to decipher to this day.
A particular part of Retna’s work is known for his style of painting over bus stop advertisements. Retna and his crew were one of the first to dabble in this concept. Some, may say that this is considered “only half his work” because, the fact that the poster was a photo that had already been taken by a professional photographer. I say the act of taking the poster to painting the poster and putting in back where it came from for the world to see is ALL HIS WORK. Some artists locally have copied his style and still continue to claim that it is their own. I’m all about inspirations and merging ideas, but taking credit for an artist’s hard work is appalling and desperate.

Recently, a few friends and I have started an art collective group. We are called The Stack House Collective. Based off the smoke stacks of an active factory. It's company of artists gathered together to spread the word of diversity and a sense of community throughout our local art scene. I've always believed that you can't have an art community without being a community. We as artists should strive together to keep the scene alive in our city. I believe in building our own publicity and promoting our own shows. It's always been a dream of mine to get something like this started. What better time than now! Stay tuned & check us out periodically @

Today, was like a Robot Factory at work. Made from clear tape, cardboard scraps, and a little creativeness I give you my 10ft “Gundam” cardboard robot. What can I say? One mans trash is another mans treasure!
Today, I was asked to help build an 8ft rocket ship out of cardboard and paper. We had some downtime at work and decided to have a little creative fun. So, after a few trials and tribulations here is the rocket we built. Enjoy!
