Maria Pureza Escaño, a self-taught artist, was born in Sariaya, Quezon, a town from which she sources the birth of her creative soul with its dreamy and colorful vistas and its rich culture of Fil-American-Hispanic infusions.
Known in the Philippine art scene for her excellent realism renditions of rustic scenes in oil, acrylic and watercolor and the sinuous quality of her abstract works, Pureza is considered as one of the most promising artists in Manila.
Buds Convocar, President of the Art Association of the Philippines describes her paintings as “can be ranked with the great American impressionists” while Dekada Arts, an online gallery, considers her style as “a bold deviation from the common impression of what is Filipino.” (Design Taxi.com News)
