Cuppa Love
i’m such a coffee junkie. I know it’s one of my many vices that it’s literally hard for me to wake up without at least a cup of coffee — and that’s anytime during the day!
Summer Solstice is Art Love!
It’s summer time in the other side of the world and while i’m super envious of the weather, i’m also loving those images that i find online which celebrate that wondrous time of sun, beach and everything sunny. I’m especially loving how Google kicked off the summer solstice (first of summer): with Takashi Murakami‘s Art Doodle!
These characters are from his company, Kai Kai & Kiki which handles several aspects of art and animation, including art design & art management. It’s one of my dreams to visit Japan and check out the many anime & design companies/places— this is definitely one to put in my list 
How cute are those characters? Gotta admit, i’m a fan of his colorful work!
Praise the Lourd, his book is here!
150 Years of Rizal the exhibit
150 Years of Rizal, 10 Years of Team Manila, One Meaningful Exhibit
Jose Rizal, arguably one of the most recognizable of the national heroes, be it for his wit, his intellect and his love for God and country has remained an icon among Filipinos of today. To commemorate the man’s undeniable influence and legacy, TeamManila is paying tribute to him by way of “Balik sa Bayan Box: Travels of Rizal” at the Ayala Museum in Makati City on June 24, 2011. The exhibit presents Rizal’s journeys and life episodes by using the Balikbayan Box, a common staple among Filipino travelers. It also aims to serve as a visual showcase reminding all of us that we can apply Rizal’s experiences and ideologies to our lives. People can expect to see a visual feast of everything Jose Rizal.
Nationalism through art is no easy field to tread on. It entails the responsibility of communicating a traditional message to a modern and often, skeptical audience. The exhibit also highlights TeamManila’s 10th year in the industry as one of the most influential graphic design studios in the country. Their well-thought of graphic designs aim to elevate Manila and the Philippines’ rich and diverse culture to their fellow Filipinos and the rest of the world.
