My Modest Painting Collections 2


I have noticed that one of my most read blogs  is about my painting collections.
so i decided to show some more art pieces which i've acquired in the past years.
i know that pictures wont do justice to the actual paintings but i decided to share them.

i havent gotten over  my love for arts so even if i have to forgo some of my  "whims"
i tried to procure pieces which i would keep and pass to my future generations...

i have met some "Lakan Sining ng Bulacan"members and true enough my passion was  ignited once i see them work esp.  the  "on the spot" session. such brilliant artists we have in Bulacan.


First on my list are works of veteran artist Mr. Raul Isidro...an acclaimed abstractionist painter...he had earned numerous distinction here and abroad. 





Another piece which beautify my clinic is from Mr. Fil dela Cruz...actually my third from him ...   His style is  so distinct that  he had mastered his craft.  I couldnt let go of a Fil dela Cruz work once it is handed to me....esp this one with a pregnant woman.

Al Perez is always a favorite....and my brother mayor's too.  He is also a Bulakenyo who always extends his help in nurturing the art in our town.


Cezar Cruz...ive got 5 paintings from him and they keep our villa's dining area delectable and inviting.







Will Reyes whose work i also regard as pleasing and fresh...


Roger Fulgado...i got 3 of his works mostly stilllife...i love the blend of colors which made the paintings lively...though i liked his earlier paintings which are more detailed.


2006 work

One of my latest favorite artist is Rex Tatlonghari who hails from Malolos City. He truly puts his heart in his painting which I could truly say as "work of love".  Every stroke is well calculated, detailed and comes alive in every piece of canvas he made.






Rico Tica...a Tanay artist who is excellent in his artworks esp watercolor...very precise and neat.



Another artist ...William Alcantara...Koi...a favorite subject among painters and his rendition is one of the best in my collection...impressive.



Mhar Baez...this is my third painting from him. just love the rendition of flowers...very refreshing and relaxing..

A.  Bonifacio...a Tanay artist ...im fond of mother and child theme and this one is my personal choice....
i really love the details...

Enrique Mandilag is a promising artist from Baliwag, Bulacan. Truly a piece admired by my guest at the villa...

Ernie Patricio....my first painting from him and its remarkable rendition of a rural life is worth looking... 


Brando Bati...a Tanay artist who held numerous exhibit in Manila..is said to be a protege of the late Manuel Duldulao...this breastfeeding mom piece is striking.


Cris Velasco...my third piece....he's such skilled with particular style...


this is my first Aris Bagtas painting.  One thing  i noticed in his painting is his unmistakable style.


so when he became a friend on facebook i commisioned him to do an art work of a woman with flowers and i requested him to add cycad leaves since i am a cycad lover.
this is the final outcome....




this is the "tres marias" i love the vibrant color he plays in his work. my third piece from him....


this is from Mr. Espanola...very enticing esp how he played with rich colors...


i also have some art works whose artist  i cant recognized  but are worth showing...

the signature says "Gorospe" but it is not in good state when it was handed to me.  i liked it per se...whether its from the famous artist or not...

this is from an old house....thus an antique painting too...

this one was made in the 70's  but i had it re framed...

this one from a Tanay artist....an Ifugao man...

Art works from a Bulacan artist...the emerging painters of our province....



J.D. Castro who hails from Baliwag, Bulacan. This is another irrestible work from a Mabini Artist in the 70's.


Nemirandas work is undoubtedly remarkable.  He is the owner of Nemirandas Art House in Angono Rizal.
...extremely brilliant artist.



This brass sculpture by unknown artist which i placed as one of the centerpiece  of  villa rosalinda events venue in our town .veritably a work of art!





Ed Castrillo. ....how i love the mother and child. the country's forerunner in all metal sculpture. such a talented man that his work is staunchly an investment.


I am enjoying my collection and they adorned every walls of our place.  Sharing this  is my way of honoring the man behind the art pieces.

Just cant get enough of these art works from the talented "kababayans" for which I am very proud of.

Pan de Bustos..... PAN-QUEUE-SAL


theres a new craze in our town
its located within the municipal compound
you can see people lining up the store
anytime of the day.


its no other than Pan de Bustos.   they only sell one kind of bread...pandesal

who would think that a plain simple pandesal could generate such popularity....
the store captured the taste of our town.


the once popular pandesal store here  was no match to the newly opened store.
it cost only 2 pesos per piece enough  to fill a hungry stomach.

i tried and became an instant fan
an early breakfast is not complete without my favorite pandesal.

congrats to Kapitan Iskul the man who brought this store to us.


what could be his secret?
i guess just one flavorful clean fair priced pandesal 
everyone can enjoy.

go try it for yourself !
