Artist Statement

"My goal is to inspire those who see my work to look more carefully not only on the positive side of life but also on the negative side and learn to face adversities with courage and resilience."

My work reflects on what I went through in life, my inspiration is my personal experience, my observations and what i feel. I paint my triumphs and my failures as well as my dreams and reality.My artwork takes a critical view of social and cultural issues. I want people from all walks of life to see my cultural background through my artwork as a tribute to my fellow hardworking Filipino workers abroad who dreams of providing a better life to their families back home. The usual subject in my artwork is a rooster, I use rooster either as a symbolism to a particular theme or as the main character in my paintings as I was once a rooster raiser in my native land, Philippines. I was very fascinated on these beautiful birds. Aesthetically, they are beautiful animals, whether it is a rooster or a hen. Their plumage is smooth varying from different colors depending on their breed. Roosters are brave too. Symbolically, roosters depicts a new day, a new life, pride and bravery. Whatever trials that come into our lives, we must not lose hope just like the rooster we know there is always a new day for us to start again
