The Instant Doodles: The 4th Bowlful exhibit is an an All Drawing Exhibition showcasing the drawings of around 88 artists, some of whom are from the Saturday Sketchings Session Artists. It opened last February 15, 2014 at Cevio Art Haus located in Pasig.

This art exhibition which pays tribute to pencil and ink - including beauty that comes from monochrome, creative spontaneity from accidents, and impulsive strokes -  was organized by Piaget Martelino.

At the same time, there was also a display of 20 early works and other personal memorabilia of the father of Philippine comics and pioneer of the local komiks industry, Tony Velasquez - the creator of Kenkoy and Ponyang Halobaybay. The exhibit was dubbed as Tony Velasquez: A Retrospective Exhibit.

A Day To Remember: Field Trip

 

Wazzup Pilipinas!

On February 20, 2014 our school scheduled an educational tour on the following itineraries: Animation Journey, Aguinaldo Shrine and Enchanted Kingdom which is located at Sta Rosa Laguna. I wrote this blog to tell and share my experiences and opinions on this day to those who are interested.

The day before the trip which is on February 19, 2014, our class decided to make a deal. It was agreed upon that whoever comes the last on school will sit on the jump seat. There are still six jump seats available so that means that there will be six people who will suffer to sit in the jump seats which are very uncomfortable unlike the other types of seats that provide both arm and headrests. That's why I woke up on three o'clock on the morning to get ready for the trip.

I arrived on school at exactly four forty-five. Before we left the school, we had a misunderstanding with the class of IV-Lewis which led to a very thick tension inside the bus. Thankfully after some time and jokes from our tourist guide, Kuya Monty, the misunderstanding was forgotten..............

Maharlika Summit 2014: The Re-visioning of Maharlika

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Change is progressive. We cannot deny the fact that today, our nation needs total change and transformation. There is crisis in every aspect of life. Most of our countrymen have been deprived of their basic necessities such as food, clothing, shelter, and medicine. How much more on the human rights, employment, social standing, economics, education, etc. to name a few. To one long forgotten aspect is the enrichment of our culture heritage and the right access to the origin of our country's name.

If we get back to our roots, there is a connecting link from the past that must be patched up to resolve the mystery that has remained—a question of our own identity.

Maharlika Summit 2014 is a Conference-Festival Summit on ‘Maharlika’ to gather together
diverse “Maharlika”-based groups in the country and abroad. It is the Re-visioning of ‘Maharlika’ as Cultural  Metaphor, Folk History & Social Movement for National Identity, Transformation, and Development.

This whole day event will be on Saturday, February 22, 2014 at the GT-Toyota Building, Asian Center, University of the Philippines, Diliman, Q.C.
