Sadness
On April 23, the artist of this site Arnaldo Andy Robles passed away. We the twins would like to thank all those for the kind words and prayers. Its really uplifting to see this many people care so much for him. Thank you again. His memorial will be in his home town of Middletown on May the 17.
Many of you didnt know he was sick because we wanted to keep it private. Only the people closest to him and really knew of his sickness. Even through all the pain he endured he still kept on doing what he knew best, draw. Hed tell you in a minute he wasnt better than all artists he knew. He just couldnt do what they did; Computer coloring, posing or comic book paneling nothing. But through everything he still didnt give up the desire to draw. Its that desire that pushed my brother and I get his artwork out there to the masses. He never had the great materials others had, he never wasted paper, he never complained about subject matter or anything. He kept anything inside and translated that to great pieces of art. 80% of this gallery is things he knew very little or nothing about. He didnt care for RPGs and thought KH was too gay but that didnt stop him from drawing those characters. Why? Because he wanted draw things he never drew before. He wanted to push himself to get better. He rarely turned down art. He was willing to do anything for nothing in return. Even if u paid him he didnt want the money. He never thought his work was good enough for monetary compensation. Just recently he wanted to get a ZUNE because his iPod broke and they can no longer fix it; we told him why dont you do commissions. He didnt want to not because he didnt have the time or anything. He didnt want to because he didnt think his art was worth it.
As for this site my brother and I dont know what do with it now. We have his last pieces of art namely his entry into the Udon SF tribute book and other works. Most likely we will leave his site dormant after we post the rest of his art which will be on the coming days.
If you want to show your love for him well think some thing for you guys do at a later days but for now just remember him and his artwork.
Thanks and God Bless

I took one look at his gallery and knew at an instant that he was dedicated to his artwork.
He has made want to improve on my artwork and not stay stuck on one style.
He was an amazing artist and his soul shall live on thru his artwork.
He will be truly missed here on deviantART.

This artist will be terribly missed, and I will most definitely continue to look at his work and keep on drawing in memory of him, one of my greatest inspirations on this site!
Rest In Peace and keep on drawing

To those who know him and love him, take heart. For though he has passed away, so long as you remember him and tell others of him, he will never be truely gone.
He will live on in your hearts and minds. Dwelling in the past with all the things that you have known, giving you strength and encouragement. But do not dwell there with him; only dead things live in the past. His memory may give you courage and hope and joy and strength, it may be a place of refuge in troubled times, but let it not be a binding chain. Go foreward and remember him, but do not dwell with him in the past.
In the coming days and months and years you will be saddened by his loss; but always look towards the future. When you see him again in the next life, you can tell him with your head held high that you lived a full life, and that knowing him, that by keeping the lessons taught by him to you in your heart, that by keeping his memory burning brightly in your heart but never dwelling upon it, you were a better person.
Our lives are measured by how we touch and affect people. And though he was taken far too young, show him that his life affected yours for the better; show him with your actions. Live life now, here, in the present.
With Deepest Sympathies,

The Cake is a lie.
I remember once I saw him working on a large piece. It was a Rockman Dash comic skit of Megaman and Tron hunting for treasure, and one of the servebots activated a reaverbot. It was a funny piece because the servebot was dealing with his angel conscious and devil conscious. And the devil conscious told him to pull the switch while the other told him not to. Of course the servebot listened to his devil conscious, pulled the switch and woke up a reaverbot. Tron started yelling at the servebot while the devil conscious disappeared laughing. It was so funny. I'm surprised Andy never posted it, it would be nice to see.
I'm sad that he is gone, he will be truley missed.
my heart goes out to the familly and to the viewers of ZeroA's art work , it must be hard to grasp the concept that such art will never be continued.
god bless and rest in peace

They say to expect the unexpected, so am I supposed to unexpect the expected, which would make the expected unexpected, so am I supposed to expect everything!?
You're an inspiration dude.
