I had lunch with Rajo Laurel last week and aside from being a great and talented designer, he is also a source of many things! He knows a lot 🙂 He also told me about the upcoming Art Auction which will be for the benefit of the ACCPF ( Asian Cultural Council of the Philippines Foundation ) where he is a Board of Trustee together with another friend, Malu Gamboa
Many beautiful works of art up for auction at the same time, you give back and help the ACCPF

Because of the success of last year’s Art Fair, I heard that the first day was so full of people snapping up all the art works on display! Many were already sold out!!! Heart2Heart is so happy that Philippine Art is gaining much attention among many collectors in the Philippines and now being recognized in auctions in Asia

We were happy to bump into Sophia Zobel Elizalde. Thank you to the Zobel family for patronizing the arts
And to Trickie Colayco Lopa for bringing art in the country to where it is now!
We went straight up to the second floor and the first art work we saw was the installation of Ronald Ventura. Some artworks remind me of the very popular Jeff Koons
I wish I owned this 🙂 Pink Mother and Child by Orlina!
My cousin Tara Soriano with an interested buyer 🙂
So happy to bump into our friend Randy Go at Joy Mallari’s booth with Marya Salang
I heard there were live butterflies in the booth of Secret Fresh! And it smelled like chocolate!! I missed you Bigboy but I came and passed by. I can’t wait to have my Gene Paul Martin Toy. I wish I got the pink one! 🙂
The Best Seat in the House according to Lifestyle Editor, Millet Mananquil – by Plet Bolipata Borlongan

Elmer’s queen 🙂 always brightens up any room! This time with a gown designed and hand painted by Rafael Luis Gabriel Gonzalez. Take note also of her hair 🙂
I am always watching out for Plet’s photos in facebook – her hair, her hat, her outfit or any accessory. She always loos different – never a dull moment with this fun and colorful lady
Colorful and lively – Just like her works of art

Congratulations Elmer Borlongan on your 20th Anniversary!
Elmer is such a humble and soft spoken guy and I admire him not only for his works of art but also for being such a wonderful husband to Plet. 
I don’t know Elmer very well but I see that he is so sweet and so loving to Plet. He is always so “game” to join Plet in her movies 🙂 her photo sessions and he never fails to acknowledge her. And as expected, even that evening Plet gets special mention 🙂 So I admire them both for who they are as individuals and together as a couple
Come and visit the Ayala Museum and see a great compilation of his works from 1992 to 2012
Get a copy of his book
we had ours signed that evening. We are so happy

This piece is a beautiful and very unique performance that I have never seen in my whole life. It’s a left hand alone piece composed by a Filipino, who was the teacher of Aries. Listen to Aries explain and then see how he plays this piece. I am so happy to have captured this
