This is a program that allows players to bypass the weaker corporate defenses. Abstractly inspired by a lifestyle of petty crime and fast living embodied by hustlers and “bad boys”. One such malandros is Zé Pilintra, a figure amongst Umbanda (a Brazilian religious sect.) Pilintra is known as a patron to those who feel marginalized by society, rogues, and bohemias. He is usually shown wearing a white suit and hat.

Since my students just completed the Gesture Drawing assignment and we’ll soon get into conceptual development, I’d like to share a peek into one of my sketchbooks. Sketching is how I process my experience of life, develop ideas, and take my pencil out for a walk. I’ve accumulated quite a few sketchbooks over the years, as I’ve kept at least one on hand since the mid nineties.

Coming soon!
