Talentadong Lolo, Nagbebenta ng Artwork sa Daan Para sa Asawang may Sakit


Sometimes, great masterpieces are not found in luxurious museums. In Iloilo, all you need is to walk by the streets of Jaro district and you will find yourself in a breathtaking street gallery. The colorful tapestries and paintings that hung the sidewalk were the works of a talented artist.

At 53 years old, Larry Casinao has made selling artworks his full-time job. A true artist at heart, Larry paints vivid landscapes and portraits. The entire street looks like an art gallery when Larry displays his masterpiece.


Aside from his artistic nature, another thing drives the old artist to sell artworks: his ill wife. According to a passerby, Larry sells his artwork to fund his wife's weekly dialysis. When sold, one painting is enough to fund two sessions in one week.

The passerby, a student named Sal Molinas, shared Larry's awe-inspiring story on social media. As expected, many people couldn't help but be amazed at the artist's masterpieces. But above all, they admired his love and dedication for his wife.

"I hope we could really help him by supporting his art because I had a small talk with him and he said that his wife is undergoing dialysis twice a week. If you know someone who is willing to extend help and buy his masterpieces, don’t hesitate to message him in his FB account."


On the other hand, many people, including celebrities, were eager to reach out to the talented artist. In fact, even Heart Evangelista herself tweeted that Larry 'deserves the world.'
