Born in one of the remote towns in the Philippines called Cuartero. My art orientation started with pencils, crayons and watercolors. My inspiration derives from the serenity of the province life where i grew up to. Art used to be a hobby and an my resort of comfort. In high school I would be designated with my teacher to create posters to be posted along the hallways of selective buildings showing my interpretation of Christmas celebration. i was determined to take a degree in fine arts but was not materialized as practicality of the course pushed me to instead take college course majoring English. I did not stop from creating artworks. this time, I have resorted my media to oil pastels, water colors, and I used acrylic paints in creating art accents on the wall and other furnitures I customized. Through the years, I have stepped in the world of employment which for a moment has required a lot of my time and focus. Little do know that I never stopped squeezing art in my spare time. I would create a wall decor in my apartments to somehow bring me joy to the mundane of the day to day routine. I eventually got overwhelmed with the demand of my time becoming an wife and a mother since 2012. It was the start of the challenge as my time is being juggled between being a manager at work, a mother and a wife at home, and have to give regular visits to my parents especially that my father needed our support in battling with his illness when he was diagnosed with stage 3 liver cancer. This has overwhelmed me for a moment and in my mind, i was determined to find way to revive my source of inspiration just to give me a sense of direction and clarity of things. Too allow me have an escape out of the lethargic effect of stress. I found my therapy in art. I started picking up the brush, purchased paints and canvasses and started pouring my heart out into the canvas. It brought me joy, it brought me happiness and most of all it gradually allow me to see the beauty of life in gener |
