Magtatapas

Art is never finished, only abandoned.

Leonardo Da Vinci

Just couldn’t finish this painting which I started years ago.I made a landscape on this 4 x 5 feet canvas and painted over it with this scenario of Magtatapas. As a beginner I created many unpleasant artworks, the failure pushed me to learn more and pursue my passion … painting???

Handpainted “Plantita” Pots

Painted a set of cylindrical clay pots for a friend’s home as an art commission. Her request was for indoor use pots, with a theme based on local plant leaves.

If you would like your own set, please send me a message. I still have some available blank pots I can paint on with your art inspirations. We can send it to your home through courier delivery (if you are based in Manila, Philippines).

Experimenting on new style of painting, mixing realism, abstraction and pointilism, couldn’ t decide if im going to add some more details in it. Thank you Lolalu Ho (Malou ) for allowing me to use the photo of Jewelle, although i wasn’ t able to make it exactly look like her, there is a resemblance to her maybe when she gets a little older.

Since i dont sketch or use gridding, my interpretation of portraits are usually a bit different from my photo reference, i paint by eye calculation , trial and error.
