Description
Festivals: Its more fun in the Philippines!
The Dinagyang Festival of Iloilo is one of the most colorful religious and cultural event in the Philippines. It is celebrated in honor of the Sto. Nino - the child Jesus and the arrival of Malay settlers in the island. This is not my usual style of painting but I thoroughly enjoyed doing it. There is an irony in the picture if you can see it. I used a photo reference for the lady but using ouido a lot to recreate her Many things were changed. I guess only the face and form are accurate.

Absolutely rustic and charming, love the history behind it. The colors you use are so vibrant, and bring such life to your picture. Enjoyable. Congrats on your sale.

Thanks Roberto! Glad you like it. This is 2nd in my festival paintings. There is an irony in the painting too like my Pahiyas one.
