About the Book
Collection of paintings by my Filipino artist-friends - I want to share my favorite art collection via this pictorial book, as if you are looking at a gallery. Please make this a coffee table book and let your friends and visitors enjoy by gifting them this book. You may cut out the images and frame them yourself. You may contact me to order from the artist for original paintings or commissioned art of your own choice. Captions Guide - Each page description is listed here.
