"Art is the language of each man's soul"

-Regina Pagunsan


I have always enjoyed and loved art. 


I began coloring and drawing ever since I can remember. It helped me express my feelings and unburden my brain with too much imaginations. Sadly, as I grow older I have come to forget to go back to the hobbies that brings joy to my heart. True, I am very active in managing a theater organization but I have forgotten what it is like to be overwhelmed in seeing the works of my on hands, literally. "It is what it is", they say. As you grow older, you tend to leave some stuff behind. While others accept this fact, I refused to conform. I promised myself that before I graduate college I will go back to these hobbies and not only that, I will further enhance this talent because it felt like it has become this child that was denied of maturity and nourishment. So, as the whole world locked down and I was left in the safety of my boarding house, I started putting colors in my head again and project it in my sketch book.

I made a version of Joker that has a touch of a at least 3 previous portrayals

A year later, I have decided to go on and throw myself into different types of art like video editing. I have been busy making short videos for my friends and it became an another way for me to journal my endeavors.

Practicing Color Grading




Lately, because of the fact that I bought an account in Netflix, a delightful app; bless those who made it, I found myself getting addicted with anime shows again. I got too in to it that I decided to learn digital art and animation.




                                         
                                         
























"Two worlds", March 2021

 "Cerebus I", March, 2021

One of the three heads of Cerebus, guardian of the Underworld. Like other Greek geeks, more specifically the Percy Jackson Fans, I have also taken a test to know who my godly parent is. And as a tribute to him, I drew his personal pet.














  "6/8" April, 2021

This an digital version and my own interpretation of me and my friends after a successful work. I did this to remember the exhausting yet fulfilling time we had after finishing our greatest work yet.


















"Cousins of House Black" May, 2021

This is my new personal favorite among my works. Based on Ellivision's Sisters of House Black (Bellatrix Lestrange, Andromeda Tonks, Narcissa Malfoy) in Youtube, I created a picture of what would it be like if their descendants met.

I might have spent a lot of time away from art but going back to it is like going home. It is like being cradled in the arms of the most gentle person, to whom I can talk with and the only one who can understand the things going on in my head. At first I decided to enhance and nourish these talents but in the end, it nourished me for it was my only companion when I am alone and made me go beyond my limits and try a different medium. It is just like what the founder of our theater organization had said:

"Art is life and life is an art"

Alza La Bandera, Latinos

 I am a person who truly enjoys reading about different cultures from different countries plus their histories because the concept of time and change always fascinates me. But if you know me, you would know that out of this countries and cultures, I always eyed England as a place where I could easily migrate in if I had a chance. I mean why wouldn't I? I love their architecture,  their history (literally my research paper),  their language (I'm so sorry ma'am Chinkie),  their products (I love Tesco, there's a lot of Tesco products in my fridge)  and they have royalties. I mean, who does not want to breath the same air as the queen, right? Most of all, they have Harry Potter! (I'm Sytherin from the Most Ancient and Noble House of Black!!)  But even though how much I love the British, there is something about the Latin culture that gives me the homey vibe. I don't know if it's because we were colonized by the Spanish for like 333 years and Philippines (as wha...

My Home City

 Have you heard of the term " home-friend"? It is a term use for friends that have seen how you grew and that person that knows you to your very core. They saw and witness the most darkest and lowest part of your life and stuck by you, disregarding your flaws but never will they tolerate you for the things you've done wrong. They are incredibly rare and very hard to find, but when you do, it will feel like having a safe place in person. For me, I met two of my home friends here in the city which also I call my home city. I was born in Pototan and lived there until I was 11 and then lived in Tigbauan until I was 14 but for some reason I never felt at home in this two different places like I do in Iloilo City.  In my experience, when you isolate your self in the place where you are born or grow up in, you deprived yourself knowledge that can only be gotten though experience. You'll miss interesting perspectives and won't witness beauty beyond the bridges of your tow...
