Rafael Maniago Original Oil on Canvas
Rafael Maniago, born in September 12, 1944 in Mexico, Pampanga, is one of the more prolific artists in the country today.
Maniago style is mostly neo-Impressionist and reflects a master of light and folk scenes. Inspired by Fernando Amorsolo and Botong Francisco, his everyday scenes are given greater energy by the way he throws light at his subject — people in the market, farmers harvesting, people walking in the street. His light gives his composition a natural beauty one could relate to. The viewer can relate as to the time of day and the the type of activity that folks, mostly rural, normally do at that time.
