Born in 1964, Roldan has been drawing caricatures since the age of 12.

A big influence in the development of his hand came with the discovery of David Levine at 14.

Levine's work taught Roldan how to exagerate while still keeping the likeness of his subjects.Later on, the french caricaturist team of Mulatier, Ricord and Morchoisne opened up his mind to using color and volume in his work.After receiving his BFA in Illustration from Parsons School of Design in New York, his interest turned to the work and draughtsmanship of Ingres, Leighton, Alma-Tadema, Bouguereau and Daumier.
Roldan believes that the eyes as well as the expression of the mouth, are the two most important features in order to capture a likeness. The rest adorn and complement what you already have. Today he is still at it and getting excited with each new face he draws.
 

Some of the publications he has contributed to: Time, Money, Sports Illustrated, The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, The New York Post, Upside,The Washington Post, The Washington Times, BusinessWeek, US News and World Report, Business 2.0, Games, The Baltimore Sun, The Philadelphia Inquirer...
