Thank you for listening to the LA Artist Podcast, where we chat with local artists about their works, style, what influenced them to start their artist journey and more.

On this episode the two Ruano Brothers that founded Los Ruano Gallery as well as this podcast get a chance to chat. The main focus is Andrew Ruano aka ARYStudio, an international artist whose career started in 2008 and hasn’t stopped painting since.

ARYStudios signature style is very colorful and bright with his character the ARY Robot. He drew the Robot character as a way to cheer-up a friend who was going through a rough time and it helped her smile, since then he has developed that simple joyous Robot into a family of smiling robots that people can enjoy.

His journey has not always been easy, especially having both of his hands injured and having to cope with the pain as he paints. You can hear him talk about that struggle as well as his way of dealing with “artist block” at times and how to overcome it and look for inspiration around you and amongst other artists' work.

Quote of the Ep: “Draw what you like! If you draw what you like you are going to want to draw more!”
