When I paid the electric bill, I took some photos of these wall paintings yesterday. It is situated in front of our local bus terminal Victory Liner. I always have seen them every month. So before they will be worn out and be gone permanently, I might as well have the photos and shared them here.

I love the UP Wall Art along Katipunan. I couldn't understand the abstract and the Fine Arts students seem to have symbolisms exclusively their own but I settle for the vivid interplay of colors.
The huge murals at Bonifacio Global City are breathtaking. I can only glimpse at the paintings and I see the deepest longings of artists in their works.
Your Igorot is one fine art. Brings to mind a sad story for I see a bemuscled being, perhaps a warrior, on a bent knee, head stooped, arms down in resignation. Hu hu. But the sinews and the stance are regal, the colors tender. Your Igorot speaks of heartache and longing and love.
Glad you have preserved this mural in the net. Good move. Kudos.

@Shavkat Would you load the pictures here? Are the other murals related to this Igorot?

@eileenleyva I tried to attach the other Igorot paintings. They are all painted in series on the wall.

@lovinangelsinstead21 I don't know who is the painter. I am sure that he is one of the indigenous people in my city.

Yes those wall murals are really becoming popular around. When I pass to some government offices they would usually have it painted with some murals like that which depicts the function of their office. It is much better to look at when they are done like that. The usualy boring painted walls becomes a canvass of some sort which becomes pleasing to the eyes than those painted with one color or at times no paint at all.

I love to draw and color. But i havent tried painting. Drawing and coloring is really relaxing for me. And fulfilling as well.
