Male Nude

Harold A. Banario

Oil on board

9.5" x 7.5"

I did not make this painting. I bought it from Baguio-based artist Harold A. Banario, former MMA fighter of Team Lakay--and, yes, younger brother of Honorio Banario, an MMA champion, also formerly of Team Lakay. I was introduced to Harold and his work by Team Lakay warrior Danny "The King" Kingad two months ago, before he opened his own exhibit in the Cordilleras.

Harold and I both like rendering male anatomy, considering that very few artists do so nowadays. 

I have two other nudes by another artist, Jao Mapa, in my collection, which I bought from our group exhibits organized by movie and TV actress Raven Villanueva many years ago
