He studied high school at the Ateneo de Naga and took up Architecture in Manila. He started out as a cartoonist—first contributing cartoons to JINGLE Magazine, and then doing the comic strip Cesar Asar for Manila Bulletin (one of the most popular broadsheets in the Philippines) in collaboration with his brother Monlee from 1980 to 2000. He is a pioneer of independent film animation in the Philippines.
Working outside the "factory" system, usually with only one or two collaborators, he’s a magician who can instantly conjure up an original piece working only with the barest of materials, usually with just pen and paper and ink.
He is one of the founders of Cinema Regla, a group of filmmakers, visual artists and musicians who spread the influence of independently-produced Filipino art throughout the country.
Roxlee is onto oil painting and has a book to his name entitled Cesar Asar in the Planet of the Noses, a collection of his cartoons and short stories. (Source: en.wikipedia.org)
