Rocom was born in LA and raised in Orange Country and belongs to neither one’s mainstream cultures of excess and self importance. He spent the first 18 years of his life growing up to the ripe age of 18. He then attended the University of California Irvine in Irvine, California across from Gina’s Pizza, which is delicious. His time spent at the university was focused on nothing related to his art and is largely irrelevant. With the theme of heartbreak as a backbone, Rocom’s work is whimsical and touching all at once. Surrounding himself with science fiction, comic books and video games, the element of fantasy is ever present in his artwork. Not wizards, dragons and elves. More along the lines of robots, sharks and monsters. When he’s not drawing or painting, he emcees for his indie music projects. Rocom enjoys burritos, has a pair of headphones, a guitar and a Wolverine costume complete with adamantium claws.
