Lee Caces, AB-MMA, 109, a visual artist as his first description on his blog. And we totally agree as he revolves around on photos, graphic design and sketches.
He’s not your typical guy who plays Play station or computer games. He usually goes out with friends and likes to observe a lot. Through this he captures moments though photos and design. 

When asked what inspires him well he only quoted Chuck Close- “Inspiration is for amateurs ; the rest of just show and get to work”. He just drinks coffee to pump up his brain and just do what he has to do. Believing that it’s not really necessary to wait on something to happen. Things will occur in the process you just have to go on and start.

His style varies. Using different mediums from mix media to digital and experiments on them as well. Whatever interests him is what he’s artworks are about definitely not the art for art sake kind. 

Aside from being a full time student he also does some freelance photography. Lee’s works conform from different concepts are as we would call it ‘pegs’. That’s how he flexible with whatever comes his way.
