Hey there, it's been a while, but man there's been so much to report!!!
I'm continuing my comics and getting a new job soon enough, as well as recreating a garden, and.....
making a secret birthday present!
Now, in the last post you see the Robles' Armory Wall, and it was upsetting that such a magnificent wall never got a progressional video made. So, I decided to make a progressional video of my secret birthday present and it's now posted on youtube! His Birthday isn't until June, so NO TELLING, ok?

It's called "Quick Paint Navy Collage by Lilah Robles". I have more info about it. PLEASE WATCH AND LIKE!!!!!!!
Also, I've been working on a few scratchboard projects, but still in the process of finishing them, so I'll be sure to have those scanned in once I'm done.
I have a party to plan out, and if there are any suggestions, please let me know! Thank you for reading and watching!

New House, New Car, New EVERYTHING!!!
OMG, have I been busy! I would like to thank anyone who's read any of my blogs, and I'm terribly sorry that I don't keep up with this as regular as I should.
I continue to do my series, and I have also finished a new project with painting an Armory Wall.
Yes, I'm a geek, your point?
The Robles' Armory Wall. By Josue and Lilah Robles. Acrylic Paint. April 15-28th, 2012.
This is the ultimate geek test! When we were picking out weapons, we were looking for unique and popular. Some weapons we thought of were yes, popular, but put it to a black silhouette, and it wouldn't look special, like the Master Sword from Legend of Zelda. In color, special; black silhouette, confusion.
All of these had unusual shapes and sizes that would make them stand out a bit more. Can you think of all of them?
Geekgasm.com just asked us for a release of this picture for their website, so be sure to check it out there too!! :D
I hope this will please the inner geek in you!

Everything's Complicated in a Glitched World
Hey, I've been going through quite the ups and downs with technology, family, and personal. So, the first thing is the wepisodes are still in process. We've been drawing and inking, so we'll be doing some animations once we get more stories down. That's our main focus at this point. I KNOW this will be a success!!
We were supposed to move into our new house 2days ago, but the original owners messed up on some paperwork, so we've been pushed back to St. Patrick's Day, so at the least the house will be decorated in a ton of green and orange! And clean! :-D
I now work as a photographer and would like to take this moment to encourage anyone reading this to PLEASE contact me for family photos! I can do birthdays, families, graduations, weddings, and more!
Finally, I also have some new sketches that I'll soon have up. Tell me what you think!
Thank you and have a great day!

The Stress of the Mess
Hello everyone! Happy New Year's! I tried to blog that day, but the computer crashed, and I finally bought another computer, so forgive my lateness.
Other than the computer crashing, I've been on the move for a new studio, and I believe I've finally found it! It's gorgeous on the inside and the neighborhood seems legit, so I'll be continuing my artwork there and moving onto some more series. I'm currently resorting at my sister-in-laws' place, and I think she's been in a terrible and evil mood. She's a nice person overall, but she just got out of an arguement with her mother about education blah, and that just leads into why a little bit of her shredded cheese is missing. My goodness, we'll pay her back for the entire bag, but we only used 1 Tb. of it for a quick recipe, and I was under the impression from my hubby that we were allowed at the shredded cheese;
I guess not.
Yea, a good guest doesn't intrude on food, but again, it was a misunderstanding, and I'll be sure not to ever touch the cheese. Especially when it's *nacho* cheese. Get it? Get it? No? oh well...
A part of my stress is also due to the fact that I've been looking everywhere for a job, and it's very hard to find something, but I still have my artwork. I would like to see an increase of artistic clients soon so that I can avoid the 9-5 office job that apparently everyone calls "real". Does everything have to be pessismestic in order to be considered real? It's like being given an ice cream that's low fat. Too good to be true and therefore, it's not real. Come on people, it's right there!!!!!
Anyway, I'm ranting on and on. I will be sure to keep up on this blog, now that I have a working computer. Have a great year and I hope to do your artwork soon!

Surfaces
Hello, thanks for reading my blogs, and thanks for enduring these diary-type of posts. A lot of stress has been piling up to the many factors of my life, and I was hoping these would be used for an adventure and not some business transaction. I haven't had much time to work on my artwork, but I did get a chance to color-draw out a mural idea with an enchanted forest theme. Once I get it scanned, I'll post it. I also plan to post a few more quick, conceptual pieces of a mural that's forming in my head. It's expanding a little greater, so naturally, I would like to paint it on a wall if at all possible. I'm also inspired to do some dimensional artwork in the style of T. Beever. Have you seen his work? His sidewalk chalk makes it look like a pond is there, or batman and robin are climbing up a skyscraper, or the blocks are that big, and I love it all! I wish I knew how he did that. I know it must take some measuring and getting used to, but it would be an honor to do some master studies of his work, because it's truly a marvel to look at. Google him sometime!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
May this be a year of many successes, triumphs, conquerings, and productivity. I know I've been keeping up with these blogs like a journal, but here've been my thoughts.
A lot of stress has been causing me to stay out of a Christmas spirit; not that I don't like Christmas, but because of the stress, it makes me realize how we celebrate this year after year after year......and eventually, there comes a Christmas, when you're not interested in really celebrating it; decorating the house to the extreme, putting up lights to the extreme, buying a bazillion presents, the more materialisitc aspect of Christmas.
Anyone who's reading this, don't bother with being offended by what I say, because I refuse to be politically correct, considering how much political action isn't really correct anyway. But I do say Merry Christmas, I believe the true meaning to be that Jesus came to Earth as a mortal to teach us, and even though Christmas is more about his birth than his whole life, I feel that Christ's Mass is celebrating him and his whole life, by the very moment that he was born. So when I look at the stores and see a ton of images for Santa Claus, or for trees, presents, sales, Christmasy-mushy-over-the-top stuff, I feel this bitterness on a strained nerve that makes me wish Christmas didn't become so degraded to the objects around us. It's a principle; a spirit. It's connected to events, which the objects help make important, yes, but these objects were meant to enhance the moment, not upstage the moment.
On the spirit bit, my stress has been causing me to not feel spiritual lately, and it's making me fall backward. I know that the key is to not let that stress get to me, but these are the problems of our future, living, and expenses. Therefore, in an attempt to keep the spirit, I want to be thankful and grateful to my friends and family, and their undying support. I want to be thankful for the life that I've been given, because I love challenges. I DOUBLE DARE LIFE EVERYDAY!!! BRING IT!!!
I would like to thank my wonderful hubby, who's been there when I've been happy, mad, sad, and freaked out. And I want to thank God and Jesus Christ, who's making the impossible possible.
Merry Christmas once again, and have a great last week of 2011!

On the 15th night of Christmas.......wait, what happened to 7-14?
Hey everyone, I am so incredibly sorry for not keeping this more updated as I said I would. I've been busy with looking for jobs, houses, graduating (yay!) and moving and packing!
Naturally, I haven't been able to do much artwork, but I still want to continue doing my series of Childhood Memories and Pareidolias. I also am hoping to find a home that will give us an extra space to convert into a studio to do my creative work in. Right now, just watching some "Supernatural" and contemplating on some questions I was asked earlier.
So, what would you do, if you found out that your spouse was a robot? They were as perfect as possible for you in pretty much every way, but they were a robot. I was thinking, if they were a robot, and that was a downfall, then therefore, they are not perfect in all ways and therefore I wouldn't want to be with them. It's a robot for crying out loud!
Perhaps I could use this topic to my advantage in a newer series of artwork...
But anyhow, have a wonderful and Merry Christmas!

On the 6th day of Christmas...
Still working on my series, still working on my videos, and now I have new projects: Finding a job and moving. I'll have to move within this month, so my Christmas will be extremely busy, and it won't just be fore the holiday rushing of it. It kinda sucks though, because I was expecting to move AFTER the new year, but now I won't be able to do that, and now there's a lot of stress that's going into the small things as well. So on this 6th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me......a moving notice.

Greetings Programs!
Today has been extremely productive, and I got a ton of my portfolio pictures printed nice and pretty today.
I was finally able to print out my series called "Childhood Memories and Pareidolias", so when I get the chance, I'll be able to scan those into the computer and print them out for viewing online!

Beginning in Small Steps
Well, let me just say this is pretty interesting. This being my first blog and all. I saw that my Scarab picture made it to the wall, but I don't know how it got that freakin' ginormous. I'll try to fix it when I figure out how. Also, my About Me page doesn't seem to be working properly, so I'll start by saying that I'm an artist, actress, and college student majoring/minoring in these studies. Currently, there are some series that I will be working on simultaneously; webisodes , a memories in colored pencil, some comics, and animations.
I'm not really into the whole keeping a diary bit, especially on blogs, but I'll try to be on top of updating this blog regularly.
