About The Artwork

When i was passing by in a remote area of a barrio Cilicao, last summer, I noticed an old man carrying a full sack of camote crops that he harvested from his rented farming land nearby his house. I really amazed with his hard muscles with the age of 75. I interviewed him while resting, sitting on his stuff. Where are you going lolo? (Grandpa) he told me he will sell his camote crops to town with one km. from our position. I got pity on him and told him to capture him with my ipad and gave him some amount to pay him to tricycle to transport the crops to town to lessen his burden carrying the heavy sack of camote. He was happy and i begun to captured him. I am planning to do a series for this man and return to him and pay him a share he contributed to me.. I chose acrylic for this piece and planning to use oil some series of this painting to preserved for the future that really touched my heart to paint him while carrying his camote crops to be sold and buy food and feed his family from the harvested crops.

I am a home-based freelance Graphic Artist / Children’s book illustrator for almost two decades, getting works from different links of freelancer sites. Presently living in Albay, Legazpi Philippines. I took up some units in college with a major in B.S. Architecture and I reached 5th year, I was not able to take board exam in Architecture due to financial problems during my studies and a conflict of studying Fine Arts. But due to my love in Art, I just recently started to paint as a self taught painter. I have a free time to study arts online with the use of powerful internet that inspired me to paint more. I was inspired with the works of the realist masters like William-Adolphe Bouguereau, Michael Angelo, Rafael and to name a few. I also inspired too much by the works of impressionist Claude Monet and also inspired by the works of our local artists like Fernando Amorsolo, Jose Blanco, Botong Francisco and others. I love to paint using oil paint and acrylic paints. I love to paint anything..most specially figurative realism. Sometimes I created my own concept and study how to layout my subject. My day is incomplete without painting any piece I liked for this day I am inviting you to explore and experience my internal world of feelings through my art. As it is a very personal world, it cannot be seen anywhere else, and thereby, I hope, I could give you a unique experience of a different sort of art. My passion in art is so vibrant. Art for me is everything that embedded deeply in my heart. I also accept commission art just email or message me and let’s talk about the ART you like. Thanks for reading.
