Last Hurray Will Never Be Clear


These past days I really been wanting to visit Nick, after I've heard that he was already bedridden and it was his birthday last Oct 11.... I know the burden that he had been keeping for many years now, he was thin to the bone and depression and anxiety was eating him so bad. 
Nicasio Samonte breath his last Earthly life on Oct 16.... 
He still had so many hopes and dreams, so many plans actually but we were limited by time to talk about it. He was the first childhood buddy that we ever lost in this lifetime...which brings me to the reality an inevitable end of this physical body of mine....will there be eternity? 


 



Kaya naman pala sabi mo, dalasan ko ang pagpasyal sayo kapag nagawi ako ng Pasay... Nung nakaraang luwas ko dyan, Pre, Pina-kanta mo pa nga sakin yung kanta na hindi natin mahulaan ang title noon....
...ito ulit ang request mo...
♫ I LIKE CHOPIN
Remember that piano
So delightful unusual
That classic sensation
Sentimental confusion

Used to say
I like Chopin
Love me now and again

Rainy days never say goodbye
To desire when we are together
Rainy days growing in your eyes
Tell me where's my way

Imagine your face
In a sunshine reflection
A vision of blue skies
Forever distractions

Used to say
I like Chopin
Love me now and again

Rainy days never say goodbye
To desire when we are together
Rainy days growing in your eyes
Tell me where's my way ♪ ♪♫

Tama ka dapat Rainy Days ang title nito..tignan mo umuulan sa araw ng iyong paglisan.
Paalam Kaibigan Nicasio Samonte <3 span="">
Makakapagpahinga kana, wala ng kirot, at hindi ka na mag aalala pa.

Art Walk

Once again it is a good reminder to put this on the tablet of your heart to have as much friends as you can.... it's good to see Sir Pops once again...Omer,   has his vacation for awhile from abroad as a Seafarer , so we made some tour in and out to some of the art scenes in the Metro. With Marko..... and I had the chance to revisit Manila Art in SM Aura. Luckily I had the chance to have a photo opp with GMA 7 teen star Bianca Umali. 


Here we go, before we go to Taguig we ate some Japanese dish somewhere in Brgy. San Antonio, Makati near Pops place...which by the way he will vacate in a month's time. So he is planning an event on 4S headquarter one last time this October 23.



2nd time around, and the last day of Manila Art. 


Marko Bello's masterpiece...
And here are some of my choices once again...

     

 



"Just Add Water" at The Podium, Mandaluyong City.... 



Be Seen in The Art Scene

  


Tell them Planet Earth is 4.5 Billion years old and they will believe you. Tell them your painting is STILL WET and they will move closer to touch it just to be sure.

Art, The Language of Emotions

My mentor, Arnel Agawin....


You have to LEARN the language of Art...through your FEELINGS...not in words but by conversations of EMOTIONS. 
That's how I approach Art like a Living Soul....for truly Great emotions were POURED to create one. -- Fher Mission Ymas 

Waiting for that one Giant opportunity....The BIG break, so to speak! It could materialized any moment or expect something from a futile effort. I need a unified response to both situation. I have to recreate or create a thought patterns that wont leave me off guard. 
   I now move on my own tempo....no extravagant vanities that may imperil my relationship with other people especially my family. 
   I'm getting older....
   I've poured too much emotions love and passions in my art, even prioritized it more than my love ones. I cried.... for my children.... hoping that my art could support them too. 



   Got my Ticket to Manila Art 2016.....Yessss!!!! Just being there, on this very Private event only for the elite, so they say.... I was invited by the way by Dr. Jocelyn Josefa Fernandez....it is good to have connections and just being there on this prestigious event could boost the vanity meter. More so if I'm a participating artist...maybe next year. 

   Could have been the best President we never had....Meriam Defensor-Santiago. I like her no matter what they say. But it wasn't like that during the first time she ran for president. You just have to understand people to appreciate their worth. 


Visited Trans-Wing Gallery to watch fellow artist during their still-life sessions or just to be there and have an appearance in the art scenes.


Remember that, no matter where you go....
There you are! 

Which Denomination is Right?
