Mixed Media Geometrics!



I love drawing different shapes and coloring them using different materials like colored pencils, oil pastels and acrylic paints. For this session, I combine sculpture work with my painting. I used old newspapers to draw and form my shapes. My teacher Lui cut the drawings I made on the newspapers and helped me insert folded newspapers inside the drawings to form 3-D shapes. I made a frame on a board using the same drawings as my design. Then I assembled these sculpture drawings on this board and later painted it using acrylic paint.

For My Mother Rosario!


This is a still life composition of a table setting that symbolized my Mom. A table with printed tablecloth in red, her bible, her favorite tinapa (fish) on a plate, her bell, the portrait of my late father smiling at her and a picture window with flowers greeting her everyday!

Christmas Parol!


A parol is a filipino word for a Christmas star which is lighted and hanged in most of the houses in the Philippines during the Christmas season. It symbolize hope, light, peace, joy and love. It is what Christmas means to me.
