Raffle Time! Art and Abe Flower Totes

Kasama sa practice ko ang pagpinta sa tote bags na bigay ng mga pamangkin kong si Aei at hipag na Ate Alice. Para pampaiba, nagpa-raffle kami sa Facebook Page namin nung June.

Nung July, nag-online roleta kami ni misis para piliin ang mga nanalo. Nakakatuwa pala ito.

Congratulations sa mga winners (1, 2, 3)! Sana nagustuhan niyo! Puro sunflower ang pinili nila ?

Available ang bag na ito kung gusto niyo rin 🙂 Contact niyo lang kami sa Page.

Whang Od Painting — International Day of Indigenous Peoples

Here are Whang Od’s portraits created by Abe for his personal collection: using his colorful surreal modern art style, another in sepia, another in close up portraiture.

On August 9, the world celebrates International Day of Indigenous Peoples. Whang Od, the last living mambabatok, belongs to the Butbut culture group from Buscalan, Kalinga.

May indigenous peoples of the Philippines and the world be included in the socio-economic system and enjoy the benefits of a new social contract where they will not be left behind, as advocated by the United Nations.

Part 2: Results! And Lessons from my first GSIS National Art Competition

Dahil labas na ang mga resulta, pwede na rin ako magpost dito ?

Kasama ng mga kapwa finalist na tagagawa at tumatangkilik ng sining, ,sa aming Zoom Awarding ceremony noong June 25, 2021.

Eto ang naging kapalaran ng mga naipinta ko..

Contest entry #1 — Non Representational Category

“Panganib”

Kakaiba ang proceso ng painting na ito. Hindi ko na pinlano, diretso lang nagpinta ng kung ano ang maisipan..

My first abstract painting.

Finished artwork, “Panganib”

… at ang resulta..!

“Panganib”

? Honorable Mention ?

2021 GSIS Art Competition, Non-Representational Category

? WINNER!!!!!!!!!

Ninerbyos ako. Akala ko di na ako matatawag.

Salamat sa GSIS.
Salamat sa Diyos ? sa talento.
Salamat sa inyong lahat ? !

Contest entry #2 — Representational Art

“Abot Kamay”

Sa totoo lang mataas ang expectation ko sa painting na ito.

This is my entry to the GSIS art competition’s representational category, pero di nakapasok sa finals?

Another lesson learned.

Yung unang una ko pang abstract painting pa ang nakapasok at nag “Honorable Mention”, like what Ate Alice said this is a new realization for me. Di mo talaga masasabi ang outcome.

Maraming salamat sa lahat ng bumati??? Ang dami kong natutunan sa kompetisyon na ito.

Sali lang ng sali para mapalawak pa ang karanasan at kaalaman sa sining???
