About the Item

Philippines Environs She was broken up Into seven thousand One hundred seven pieces Of unproportionate sizes Mother Nature compensated her With the longest coastline In the whole world The deepest point On the planet That man can ever dive And the most biologically diverse Waters of Mother Earth More diverse than the clouds And stars above. She is as pure And beautiful As the Mother Pearl Lying in the heart Of the Orient Seas Her beauty captivated millions They want her Keep her As their very own. But her beauty Has its own curse Nature puts her On fire On the edges Of the largest ocean on Earth In the Pacific Ring Of Fire. She is as just big As the Mini Mouse Compared with the Giant Panda Its breadth and dimension Have been laid down Since time immemorial In accordance with the laws of men and God Anchored by the values Of equality and respect. Her territorial jurisdiction Is just enough for her children to settle And divide among themselves Yet super powers Of different colors want Her bluest seas Her whitest shores Her longest coastline Her deepest waters Her volcano which peak Claims the sky with the Most perfect cone in the whole world And the Philippine Eagle That soars and dominates the vastness Of the sky, the largest of all Eagles With its mighty wings It can even reach the heavens above. Oh! Our beloved Philippines We love and adore In your great bosom We seek refuge And solace Your beauty Gives us a taste of heaven Your love Gives us the strength to conquer all evils. No man No nation Could ever take your place In our hearts In our minds Even in our very souls. No man No nation Could ever conquer You once more Under the mighty hands Of super powers We would rather die A zillion times. Every single fish and grain of sand In your seas and ocean Every bird that flies Above your sky Every fauna and flora In your forests Every Filipino From Womb To Tomb We shall protect and respect Until our last breath. These, we swear Under the name Of our heroes and ancestors The Youth to whom Our hopes and burning dreams Will continue To all Overseas Filipino Workers Who sacrificed the comfort of your love For posterity of one's country and family And to the One Above Our Almighty God. :: Painting :: Impressionist :: This piece comes with an official certificate of authenticity signed by the artist :: Ready to Hang: No :: Signed: Yes :: Signature Location: Lower right hand corner :: Watercolor Paper :: Portrait :: Original :: Framed: No

Although renowned for his innovative and groundbreaking sculptures, Alexander Calder started his artistic career as an abstract painter, preferring to use gouache. What is gouache? Gouache is a water-soluble paint – a type of opaque watercolor. As Calder returned to gouache painting towards the end of his life, he was now armed with a lifetime of experience as a sculptor. He explored the three-dimensional vocabulary of sculptural forms he had developed onto the two-dimensional surface of the paper. Certain shapes and colors recur throughout his gouaches and sculptures. Circles, ovals, and other geometric forms dominate the space. There is the same sense of energy and fluidity. The shapes do not sit on the surface but vibrate giving a feeling of movement in contrast to the static nature of painting. Like his sculpture, Calder’s gouache...
