Good morning

Vicente Romero Redondo Art

Inge Löök painting

Inspired by the rich cultural traditions of his native region in the Mountain Province in the Philippines, Jordan Mang-osan has been practicing art since the age of 19. He is an Igorot from the Cordilleras and holds true to his roots by working with raw indigenous materials. His patience and skill are evident in this series of solar drawings. Mang-osan steadily holds a magnifying glass to create pyrographic etchings in wood.



Mang-osan’s art has earned him numerous awards and he has been exhibiting his creations internationally since 1993. He is one of the founders and current president of the Chanum Foundation, which began in 1996, to create an artist village in the middle of Baguio City. It has become a hub for art, spreading it to larger audiences and a studio for budding artists all throughout the country.

At first, this artist in Rome looks like he is just randomly spray painting on some paper. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to what he’s doing, but, by the end, it’s clear that his vision has been planned all along. The artist here is unknown, but there are similar artists creating remarkable artwork with spray paint in many major cities around the world.

"A tree says: My strength is trust. I know nothing about my fathers, I know nothing about the thousand children that every year spring out of me. I live out the secret of my seed to the very end, and I care for nothing else. I trust that God is in me. I trust that my labor is holy. Out of this trust I live."
— Hermann Hesse
