Ra's Page
its been a long time since i've posted some good deisign linkage but this should make up for the non posting vacation.
i've been going to this site for a while now and its still the hot shit. i found out about Ra through some of the other members of GuiGalaxy [see my post about GG here] whi9ch he is also a member.
i was first hooked on Ra's work by the Mac desktop icons he made. when i went to his site i was blown away by the desktop graphics and illustration. you see his work and its hard to put a finger on what medium it is. it looks like illustration and painting but parts of it just seem.....not. i got a chance to talk to Raoul a long time ago to ask him exactly how he got his look and he informed me about Painter by Corel which is just hands down cool. looks like real paint and other "real world" mediums but not as messy. trying to bite some Ra style i played with it for a while with no luck. that guy is just talented. his characters go from a graffitti look into a comic book look and sometimes just outright abstract. ive showd this this to many people and i dont think a single person was not impressed. the website itself is even a work of art. it looks hand drawn but has the coding and inter workings of some real high tech shit that is over my head. actually its so over my head it could be really simple. but after you check the icons , the illustrations , the desktops, the movies, the games, the links and extras, you HAVE to check out the music. great stuff. i think it would maybe go under breakbeat. but not really dancey. maybe IDM [intelligent dance music] what ever you would call it, its great headphone shit. i somehow got a mix cd he had made and its some pimp walking shit.
my fave song is "crows" and my fave illustration is "town" from the 2001 collection
this website is about gay ...this shows that you don't have a life!

Posted by: ryan at September 25, 2003 02:20 PMweird. 2 negative comments about ra's page [or is it about craplog?] either way its cool to have your own opinion. i like it a lot. but it would be more rad if one were to say "this is bad, but this [insert website here] is really good"
so cool if something sucks but hook me up with something you think is better. or something you like.
