"sa ngalan ng ama (in the name of the father)" Painting

born on the 26th of november 1983 in paco, manila and i grew up n the province of palawan. at an early age I discovered my inclination towards art and began exploring my talent. on 2001, i moved to manila to take up painting at the university of santo tomas and graduated in 2006 with a bachelor's degree in fine arts.I tried exploring different artistic styles and media and studied a lot of art movements for many years. after being a social-realist painter for a while, I now found my niche in abstract art and follows the works of jackson pollock and mark rothko. I discovered my style which I call "gestural realism" a non-representational abstraction characterized by elemental composition of lines and earth colors blended and blurred in a social-realist harmony.
