 DEMETRIO
DIEGO +
Born in 1909 in Bulacan. Perfected his art while working as illustrator in several weekly magazines. Noted for his oil painting of rural maidens and for his pencil and charcoal sketches. Subjects dealt mostly on rural scenes and folk. Had to switch to watercolor in later years due to the ill-effects of oil fumes on his eyesight while painting. Was active in his art even late in his life. |
