I am Cj de Silva. Some might recognize me as the Promil Kid. I love to paint and illustrate. Advertising is not just a day job for me. Film, moving pictures and music are my escapes.

“I came to realize that having a voice is not enough anymore. Sadly, sometimes, my voice can work against me. And no matter how brilliantly Dave Grohl defends me, the Christina Aguileras, Adam Levines and other American Idol judges (I’m mixing my references, aren’t I?) of real life will still find my flaws and “immaturities”.”

“Love is old, love is new.
Love is all, love is you.”
Perhaps that’s the best line Wincy and I could think of about each other.
I’ll be posting our wedding photos soon! :)

My Guilty Pleasure Games
I remember my parents would usually take me to my cousins so I can play computer games. But I always felt like the console was never on my side – what I command the computer to do never actually happens. I end up too frustrated so I just watch my cousins blow up each other with their hadoukens and bring out their animal instincts.

Cool Coupling: 11 of Manila’s Most Beloved Couples
“A Pair of Geniuses: Wincy Ong and CJ de Silva 
He’s been hailed as a “genius” by Quark Henares and she began her public life being endorsed by a milk product as being a “gifted child.” But it’s certainly something when a polymath talent and a child prodigy fall in love. Wincy and CJ share a lot of things in common—most especially things that they hate. Even celebrating anniversaries are anathema to them. After all, what do you expect from a couple that can boast a combined artistic legacy that includes perfect pop tunes, advertising campaigns, album design, and a horror film? If anything, the most normal thing this maverick duo plan to do is get married, which they will this month. Best wishes from Spot.ph!”

I always said “Its the Indian, not the pana.” (For my friends across the globe, here’s a translation: “Its the Indian (archer), not the bow.”
Early in life, I developed the aversion to fancy tools – from that pencil case with eject hidden sharpeners, to the watercolor brush shampoos. The reason is very simple: we cannot afford it. So ever since, I’ve comforted my angsty juvenile (pa-art) self that I should just focus on my techniques, given a very limited range of art tools.
But with more time and experience, I learned that even a very skilled artist (or technician), if given faulty tools, the process of creation won’t be as inspired. Worse, the work won’t be as efficient. Now, I recognize the importance of having the best tools that you can have. (Pag-ipunan na lang. Investment rin ‘yan.)
My iPad has been a very helpful tool for my art (and rakets). I use it for viewing of reference photos when I’m painting or sketching. But the Paper App and the Jot Pro stylus helped me maximize my iPad more. Now I can literally write down and doodle my ideas on the iPad. And just when I thought my Jot Pro stylus is the best, I get introduced to the Jot Pro Touch.

Check out my new artwork using the Paper app and the Jot Pro Touch!
