Filipino Paintings: The Distinct Style of the Filipino Artist

Note: The Filipino paintings shown here are original artworks of Filipino artist Bernardo Duldulao, who learned firsthand from the legendary artist Fernando Amorsolo. The paintings below are for sale. For inquiries, contact the lensmaster.

Even in today's digital age, many Filipino painters still stay true to traditional Philippine art, depicting traditional countryside sceneries prominent during the Spanish colonial through post-Spanish colonial era artworks. Fernando Amorsolo, one of the Philippine's premiere national artists was one such artist, picking subjects that reflect the Filipino people's colorful everyday lives, recording history as they unfold, back dropped by scenic landscapes of farms and majestic countryside.

Showcased here are the artworks of Bernardo Duldulao who, under the tutelage of Amorsolo, focused on genre-themed crafts, mainly depicting Filipinos at work on farms and markets in the early days.

Meet the Painter

Bernardo Duldulao, an alumnus of The University of the Philippines College of Fine Arts, has decades of wonderful experiences in painting. His skills have been harnessed under the tutelage of no less than one of the great and most important national artists Fernando Amorsolo. Bernardo's artworks are characterized by swirling brushstrokes typical of a semi-impressionist style with brilliantly prominent warm tones and a touch of Amorsolo's legacy. Central to his paintings are the Filipino women depicted in traditional countryside sceneries which are displayed here.

I would love to hear from you

    Filipino art is always something of a mystery to most people. there is a strong classical music scene, even producing shows in the shopping malls.. Which is cool, whilst you eat a burger or adobo.
