12/12/2020 So Its been like 6 months since I quit social media, no FB no IG, and I feel great! The downside of this would be there's less exposure. but I would say now I have more time and focus to work on projects. I kept my behance portfolio though, make sure to check it out! If you would like to reach out for a commission or just to chat, or if you are a friend that wants to keep in touch, hit me up rrrosiles@gmail.com!, also I love to receive snail mail, so if you would like to exchange art, stickers or postcards, or just write, let me know! Go buy my stuff on Etsy

RASPADO!! A virtual DRINK AND DRAW SESSION at Spudnik Press Cooperative!!
I would like to invite you all to a Drink and Draw Session at Spudnik Press! Mark your calendars: March the 3rd 2021 !! Its gonna be a lot of fun!. The guys over a Spudnik Press wrote a very nice description of the process of Raspado:
Artist, printmaker, and muralist Rogelio Rosiles discovered the process for raspados or “scratch drawings” by accident while sanding down layers on his paintings. Now he fills his sketchbook with these colorful, textured drawings whose grainy finish is reminiscent of early, low-res, digital media. This simple process allows you to play and create on many levels by covering crayon wax with an acrylic coating and then scratching through the surface to reveal what’s hidden below. Scratch drawings feel a lot like printmaking because they work both forwards and backwards, by adding and subtracting, and you’re rewarded with a dramatic final reveal. It’s a wonderful way to play with simple, nostalgic materials and create happy accidents and surprises for yourself along the way. Suggested Materials:
White paper (the thicker the better)
Crayons
Sharpie markers, acrylic paints, dry erase markers, shoe polish, or White Out
These are some pictures of my show at Coffee Party, In El Paso, Tx. This was in May of 2019, I dont know why I never post them.. Thank you to everyone that showed up and bought some art and things.. enjoy!
So around 2012 I started a Cargo Collective site, but left it undone. So just recently I somehow remembered that I had it. I was editing it a little bit, come check it out , I definitely like the minimal layout of their sites. I might consider moving my site over there in the future. http://cargocollective.com/rosiles

Nov. 2015 Estoy trabajando en una nueva serie, con el concepto de los 5 elementos de la naturaleza. Lleva por titulo "Mahābhūta", según el Hinduismo y el Budismo, los elementos son 5, (a diferencia de occidente donde siempre nos enseñaron que solo eran 4), Agua, Aire, Tierra y Fuego, y el 5to es el Eter, el espacio, el elemento espiritual.
