Here is a portrait of the famous Dr. Cuanang ( by Winner Jumalon 2006)  found at the Pinto Museum.  Thank you Dr. Cuanang for your amazing contribution to Philippine art!

We were toured by one of the Saling Pusa artists, Jim Orencio

The Museum had just opened last December 2010 and I heard it took around 2 years to build with the help of artist Tony Leaño

Love the display of the Philippine flag!

I was just so awed and dumbfounded so to see so many beautiful antiques and art works around the place!

Wow!  This was the first artwork you see as you enter the gallery!  What a treasure!!!!!! A 1992 painting made by the Saling Pusa group! PRICELESS!

Dr. Cuanang has a beautiful collection! He knew these artists had talent and he supported them.  How can you put a value to even just that alone?  And now it is even so difficult to acquire such works from these artists – Elmer Borlongan, Tony Leaño, Mark Justinani, John Santos, Joy Mallari, Emmanuel Garibay, Geronimo Tapales and the rest of the group!
