The Beauty Of Philippines’ Capital, Manila Captured In 19 Hyperrealistic Watercolor Paintings That I Made

The subjects that I frequently use are street scenes, especially those in Manila, the capital of the Philippines. I spend 1 and a half months creating every piece, 5 days a week, 5 hours a day, in the size of 21×29 inches.

What’s good about this subject is that it shows an ordinary scene in an extraordinary time, which is frequently unnoticed by us. I’ve chosen watercolor because I believe this medium can show the soul and character of the subjects, as well as the characters in every piece. Another reason why I chose watercolor is that it is also one of the hardest mediums when it comes to painting.
