ABOUT
PHILOSOPHY
Creating art is being in an unknown realm that artists want you to see. It is a gateway to their unidentified world - an illusionary feeling they want you to experience and the untold secrets they want you to hear. Art is a mirror that justifies our enigmatic existence. We must learn the norms of art as this is our gateway to the unknown domain. Art gives the artist unlimited boundaries. It is an open door to those who seek contemplation of their mysterious self.
ABOUT
Painting, sculpture and ceramics are some of my interests. I'm currently working on some artworks that are inspired by Chinese & Italian themes focusing on political, psychological and social topics. My style as an artist is both inspired by the Impressionist movement and the Modern Art of Robert Rauschenberg. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts major in Painting at the University of the Philippines. My master degrees are in Education with a major in Educational Management (Philippines), International Education (Massachusetts, USA) and in Fine Arts major in Graphic Design (San Francisco, USA).
