ARTISTS
Ronald JERESANO ( b.1983, Philippines )

Born in 1983 and raised in Sorsogon City in the Bicol Region of the Philippines. Ronald first discovered art when he was in primary school, and he went on to represent his school and win an art competition. Throughout his schooling, he pursued art as a serious hobby although he eventually graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Architecture from the Polytechnic University of the Philippines, Santa Mesa, Manila. Despite having studied architecture, he decided to follow his heart and his instincts. He began teaching himself proper painting techniques through books and magazines, and by studying the painting masters of the Philippines. As such, the subject-matter of Ronald's canvases are influenced mainly by his own personal beliefs and outlook on life, which can often have political resonances.
Ronald has been highly prolific since he started actively exhibiting in 2008. He has participated in numerous exhibitions in the Philippines and won several awards annually since 2003.
