Visayan Contemporary Art at "Kadaugan sa Mactan" Exhibit

Raul Agas' acrylic painting, "Magellan's Cross" is worth PhP17,000.

I thought I lost these files but found them while cleaning up my inbox. These were supposed to have been posted a while back but it isn't too late. These paintings have somehow been captured for posterity. Unfortunately, I've misplaced my notes so pardon me if I'm unable to label some of the paintings. They were on display at an exhibit called "Kadaugan sa Mactan" (Victory in Mactan) in Mactan Cebu International International Airport, Cebu. You can't deny richness of local color, and the immense talent behind each work.
