art in the park @ velasquez park

good thing i read abba's blog yesterday. because of that, i knew that the art fair she's participating is just a 5 minute walk from our office. thanks to the interactive maps available on the internet, i was able to see abba, yoshie and ali. :)

i've heard about the saturday market in makati for months already. i've seen it on TV but i was wondering where exactly it was... now i know...

by the way, the museum foundation of the philippines organized this event and as what i have read on the internet, this is the 2nd time they have held this kind of event in the velasquez park.

the truth is i don't have any plans of going there but when i found out that its just near our office, might as well go there para moral support kay abba... tsaka para makita ko rin sina abba at yoshie. grabeh... 6:30am pa lang nandun na sila... ang aga sobra... hehehe... i was suppose to be there at 12:30 but for some weird reason sobrang traffic... hmp... 30 mins lang yata ako nakapagstay dun... then i had to go back to our office because my shift will start at 2 pm... but its ok... at least, i saw them... :)

i wasn't able to cover the entire park because of lack of time but the place where they put up the tents for the paintings is the part of the park facing leviste street. the tents on the other side are for those entrepreneurs who sell their stuff, mostly food both raw and cooked.

abba and her artist friends have one booth showcasing their paintings. abba introduced me to jez and noel... teka, tama ba ung names nila???... i'm really bad with names... sorry... ung dalawang artist friend nya... apat sila dun pero ung isang artist nila nasa work daw... she was blaming me for not painting kse if i do sana daw kasama ako dun... hahaha... sorry, but i really can't manage... hirap kse talaga pag ikaw lang inaasahan sa bahay na kumita ng pera e... you tend to sacrifice what you love doing for the sake of earning more... hehehe... :) pero promise... i'll try to paint again... hehehe...

its a nice event sayang nga lang i had to leave soon... sana next time kasali na ko... tsaka sana matuloy na ung two man show namin ni abba... hehehe... wish harder russ!... hahaha...
