hi there, like your untraditional way of portraiture, awesome; specially the ones made on skate boards, very urban.
rubenu Replied: December 08, 2009
Thanks. Going to do a show only on skateboards (portraits) it should be fun.

Thanks. Same to you: great control, excellent technique and style.
nunage  Posted: October 13, 2009
Ruben is one of my favorite artists of this time! His use of color, and imagery is something I feel cannot be copied. Not only is every piece done freehand, is makes you feel. And gives you peek into his mind, soul..his life.
rubenu Replied: November 09, 2009
I love you too maaaaaaaaaaaan!... you ain't getting my Bud Light... but you are getting a lot of Art.
