Welcome to the Information Desk !
If you have any questions or if you want to find out more about the site, this is the right place to visit.
On the right column are some of the 'Frequently Asked Questions'
that I've been asked regarding my hand drawn portraits.
If you have any other questions that are not covered,
feel free to contact me via e-mail:

1. How long does it take to draw each portrait?
It depends on my schedule. Usually, I can finish a typical portrait between four to five days. A portrait that has a lot of details, will take longer to complete. Interruptions from daily activities also prolong the process.
2. Do you take orders or requests to draw portraits?
Yes I do. Please click this link: Sketch order for details on how to place your portrait order.
3. How long have you been an artist?
I started drawing portraits (mainly those of my favorite artists/singers) when I was in high school. I did quite a few portraits when I was in college. Nowadays, I try to draw whenever I can 'grap' any free time, or when I get a request to do so.
4. Did you design this site?
Yes I did.
5. What kind of softwares did you use for this site?
For web editing, I used Namo Web Editor, and for graphic presentation, I used Photoshop. Video animation of this virtual gallery was done using Punch! Interior Suite, based on my originally 'sketched-on-paper' floorplan.
6. What are you up to now?
Mainly my business, Creative Artistic Nuance (CAN) and the non-profit organization, UNIITE, of which I'm a board treasurer and its webmaster. My next self-taught project would be that of 3ds max.
7. Can you teach me how to design/make a website?
I would love to, but unfortunately, I am a lousy teacher ;) There are many helpful sources out there, on the internet, for those who want to build their own websites. I am very thankful to those helpful sites since I learned from them and that was how I got started. My only advice is that, learn the basic thing; which is, how to write the HTML or better yet, XHTML before designing a site. After that, if you decide to have an elaborate looking website, invest your time learning about other techniques such as css, php, etc. There are a lot of graphic softwares that are available out there that can help you create great graphics. Most important of all, have fun, be original, and express yourself!
