As I await Christmas, the first coming of Our Lord, I ponder on how fast time flies, and what remains in my heart. I often look outside in the evening and see my favourite blue sky, now graced by rain, making December even colder. A girl draws an angel on the foggy window, looking outward as a sign of anticipation. Although she may not see them, there are angels around us who watch over us if we entrust ourselves in their protection.

I am an artist from San Juan City, Manila. Currently, I have a BFA Major in Painting from the College of Fine Arts and Design, University of Santo Tomas. I want my work to tell stories and make people slow down from their busy lives.

My works are mostly portraits, nature, slice of life, religious, character design, and fictional concepts. I also do lots of fan art in my personal time. I specialize in acrylic and inks. My art speaks for itself, and I want to connect with the kid in all of us. I hope people will appreciate all the small things, and feel happy to be alive, despite their problems.
