I want a Dominic Rubio painting

When I saw a photo of one of his painting being auctioned for a good cause, I was in awe. My fascination with the Philippine colonial times has been with me ever since I started reading history books. It was one of the not so great era but I am more interested in the way of life during those times.




These paintings appealed to my aesthetic, it has vivid colors, clean lines with a hint of history, surrealism and reed thin necks. Either painting would easily fit in my living room wall. I am sure I can always find a great spot for these two.
