An Art Museum of a family of artists.Paintings are done by the talented members of the Blanco Family where in all of the members (father, mother and 7 kids) paint.
Located in the heart of the town of Angono (The art capital of the Philippines) 312 Ibanez st. Angono, Rizal. Philippines.
During our visit, it was a great thing to talk to one of the children, Michael Blanco, who is a Literature graduate. He recalled that he started painting when he was 10 years old, a grade 4 pupil who were inclined to art.
He mentioned that when he and his family visit a certain place, they usually paint inspired from the place thus when I asked if they have a Cordilleran heritage, he said no but they have artworks inspired from the culture of Cordillera.
The tour guide mentioned that the father was popular as Pitok, since he liked fishing and when he is done with it, he usually turned his boat upside down and sleep and looks like a died fish upside down.
He also mentioned that all the children undergo a thesis, to determine if they are ready for solo exhibit.
Michael Blanco aspires that the Blanco Family Gallery will be a hub for art wherein people will flock the place not just to view the painting but to experience painting, enjoy foods and be part of the art community since they are opening the place for different art activities and different art genres.
