Robin Recato
Digital illustration and Multimedia Artist
Hello!
I’m Robin Recato, thanks for visiting my website!
I’m an Artist in the Philippines and a graduate of Multimedia Arts from the De La Salle College of Saint Benilde (2014). I worked for browser based and mobile games from 2004 to 2017! From 2018 to present, I produce different kinds of merchandise with my art and offer my production services as well.
While my main medium is digital illustration, I’m also a traditionally trained artist and have been making art since I was 7.
Stickers & Merch
In the past 6 years (2018-2024), stickers are most of what comes out of my studio in Carmona, Cavite. On top of what I make for my own shop, people often avail of my sticker printing services. I don’t have a minimum quantity order and I often work with personal printing, artist and designer stickers, and small business label needs.
Despite working on my own, I can produce over 500 stickers a day as I have two 6-color Pigment Printers, a color laser printer, and two cutting machines. I work closely with other print shops and manufacturers for many different types of prints and merch.
Do you want me to create stickers and other merchandise for you?
Personal Art
My early days sharing my work on the internet, I learned that I enjoy collaborating and working with other creatives. I loved working with a team who had a shared goal, so learning how other people made their art and why they chose to do things a certain way had always been an engaging challenge for me. This enabled me to be flexible, helping me get recognition in the industry and spaces I was in. However, years of this made it difficult for me to make art for myself that I truly enjoy and take pride from the same way I do with the work I’ve done for and with others. At some point, this seeped into my personal life, and was anxious and wondered if I even had a voice of my own.
I believe this is a common insecurity people go through in their personal and/or professional lives. Just like in art, it was beneficial for me to recognize and work on my foundations as a person, so found help in tools such as personality modules. On top of that, knowing I wasn’t alone in figuring out my place enabled me to reframe my impression of myself, fully realizing that presenting my work in however way it wanted to show itself is the best way for them to come to life. Eventually, my mindset shifted to seeing myself for what I’m capable of at the present and how I can utilize that to explore and grow.
Most of my personal art available for purchase stems from this experience. Whether you’re looking to be part of a community or simply on your journey of self discovery, I hope you find something you’ll like from me!
Resin Art
Apart from pouring acrylic, I love making resin pieces. From small flat back cabochons to large shaker charms, there’s just really no denying that resin is such a fun and versatile medium to work with. I’m able to embed stickers I’ve printed and made for a fully custom piece!
I make custom silicone molds as well. Using Liquid Silicone, I can pour over a variety of things to create resin pieces from. I’ve even made molds out of hardened paper, packing tape, and home made air dry clay! I prefer hiring a local CNC cutter to make acrylic blanks to match my designs, though. It’s easier, and cleaner!
I’m constantly making resin pieces and document my experiments. I bring most of my handmade merchandise to conventions and some pop up on my online store. If you wanna check out what I’m doing, head over to my blog!
