Thanx for the link. i'm honored.
Rameer's "Mora-Lisa" is owned by the Arenas family. Unfortunately, it was shipped to the US, so there's no chance for us Filipinos to appreciate its beauty.
Rameer priced it at 300,000+++ pesos. He never thought they would grab it immediately.

the man is very unassuming, you'd never expect such a gifted artist to be so humble.

Rameer's ukkilistic style of painting expresses his inner passion and soul. Photographs simply do not do his paintings justice! They must be seen and felt. My personal conversations and communications with my dear friend Rams often lead to a deeper level of appreciation and understanding of our respective arts and each other's soul. My passion lies in photography, his in painting. We both share a vision for inner beauty and a quest for peace. You may see some more of Rameer's paintings at http://www.jetsonkat.org/. Wherever your passion lies pursue it with compassion and conviction...jijma
