A local artist named Elito “Amang Pintor” Circa who is from San Jose, Nueva Ecija is currently working on a montage of President Duterte in a painting.
Circa’s painting is not like any other masterpiece done with traditional materials — but has literally used his own blood and sweat to create his painting. He believes that using his blood to create works of art signifies life.
Amang Pintor told ABS-CBN News: “I asked a nurse to extract my blood and place it in test tubes so I could use it to paint.”
“I had to paint fast and keep the blood-filled vials in a refrigerator as the blood will spoil in a matter of days,” he said.
Circa had chosen President Duterte as his subject since he was impressed with his performance.
“Bilib talaga ako sa kanya (Duterte). Minsan negatibo siyang magsalita pero parang kaibigan lang ‘yan na naiintindihan mo kahit iba pa ang pananalita niya… Marami na siyang nagawa,” he claimed.
The blood painter has also made paintings of Senator Manny Pacquiao and members of the Circa family using his unconventional materials.
Circa disclosed that his paintings are not for sale, since he considers the labor of his (literal) blood and sweat as ‘priceless’.
