I fell in love with this photo the day that Jan posted it. The cards are beautiful, frame able for a small space. I like that they have plenty of room for writing or doodling inside.

Translation: Burnt rice
Tutong is the word for cooked rice that is slightly brown to chocolate (if burned) that sticks to the sides and bottom of a rice pot.
The girl's name is Yta (short for Negrita) and the boy is Yzo (short for Mestizo). These are characters I made up.

This painting demystifies the belief. The color of your skin is not influenced by food but food can make you lazy if you eat too much and become sluggish. Or maybe I'm just plain lazy :-)
I paint visual narratives. I try to create stories with themes that range from the blissful to the brooding. Typically, my compositions are laden with common and personal symbolism. My works seem to have disconnected elements but they are in fact linked in the way that I see them. To the audience, however, they are like puzzles; open to varied personal interpretations. I don’t like to confine myself in a box. Some days I paint social commentaries. Other days I just paint my personal observations of issues that pertain to almost anything under the sun - this can be political, social, environmental, religious, cultural, and even agricultural.

Again thanks Wendy! Love it when people appreciate what I do. Many of these paintings are on show right now and I get a kick listening to them talk about the pieces. Of course I do not introduce myself as the artist.

Paul, your portfolio is powerful and beautiful; full of vivid color, humor, and human emotion. What a treat!
Lourry Legarde
Nice theme, Paul!
Paul Hilario replied:
Thanks Lourry! I guess no one's done this theme ever. It's not popular and perhaps never will be.
