Heart2Heart is so excited for the upcoming MaArte Artisan Fair.  This will be my first time to go though Mel told me this has been going on for 3 years already. maarte-2013-d2-portrait.jpeg

 Another worthwhile project by the Museum Foundation of the Philippines who are really doing such a great thing for our country – for our culture, for our artists, uplifting Filipino art and at MaArte, patronizing local artisans!!!

Thank you to the foundation committee for putting all of this together!  President of the Museum Foundation Petty Benitez-Johannot, Co Chairs of the committee – Tita Mita Rufino, Tita Maritess Pineda and Tita Cedie Vargas with committee member Mel Francisco

An interesting story which our friend, JJ Soriano, shared with us.  A story about his father who used art as his therapy when he got a stroke.

Thank you JJ for sharing the works of art of your father with us through the beautiful notecards

Discarded Romance by Mike Stilkey

By | Arts and Culture, Hot Off the Press | One Comment

Last June 6, I was able to stop by Fully Booked to meet Mike Stilkey as he was installing his artwork!  

Previous entry:  Mike Stilkey at Fully Booked on June 7 and 8

He has brought this to Times Square Hong Kong and not in Manila.  This will already be a permanent installation in Fully Booked

And here he is!  🙂  What a pleasure to meet the artist.  For many years he wanted to be a professional skateboarder but because he kept getting hurt, this dream sort of changed and he began to draw.  Catch him today at 3pm for a Dialogue and book signing!

Chris Daez was there too!!

Mike will have some artworks for sale – on Books and on Paper with a price range of around P 50,000 to P 150,000.00 which is very reasonable for the work that he does

ON BOOKS

Light of the World by Carlo Tanseco

By | Arts and Culture | No Comments

We received a beautiful gift from Carlo Tanseco!  A crucifix designed by himself!

Apparently it is just a smaller version of the crucifix which can be found in the Xavier Nuvali Oratory which is 4 meters high!  There are also 21 stained glass windows in the Oratory designed by Carlo as well.  I hope I get the chance to visit and see the actual one of these days
