Artist uses own blood, hair in paintings

Ang Pebrero ay buwan ng sining! Kaya naman gusyo kong ibahagi sa inyo ang isang artikulo mula sa Philippine Star tungkol sa isang alagad ng sining (na kaibigan, guro at kapatid ko sa aming ‘samahan’) na gumagamit ng sarili niyang dugo para lumikha ng sariling obra.

Artist uses own blood, hair in paintings (by Punto Central Luzon)

Nueva Ecija artist Elito Circa poses beside his self-portrait painted entirely with his own blood as the medium.

NUEVA ECIJA, Philippines – A homegrown artist from the remote town of Pantabangan, Nueva Ecija is a “blood and hair” painter.

Elito Circa, 41, uses his blood as medium for some of his painting and incorporates his hair in capturing on the canvass images of human persons or nature’s view.

But even if blood is not used in painting his subject, he always signs his name in his work of art with his own blood. Under his signature, he also writes in blood his appellation “Amang Pintor”, which was the bansag (call name) given by the Pantabangan residents then to identify him from the other “Amangs” in their locality.
