An email sender named Aika sent the photos(above) of the works of an artist named Anino.We are planning to write an article on Anino's early days of being a street artist but we don't have pictures and documentations. Second we got more interested in Aika's enthusiasm and passion for Anino's work.We think that the effect of the artwork/ artist on people's psyche is a very important part in the whole discussion of art. We had a good discussion with Aika and the text below are extracts from our initial conversation with her.

girl he says its Sharon Cuneta.
...sa pag kakaalam ko po isa po sya sa mga unang nag street art
dito sa Manila hindi pa po nafform yung pilipinas street plan kac
matagal na po ako sa kanya nakabili ng print, yung print nya po kasi
edition of 9 pcs lang dahil madali lng daw masira yung stencil na nacut

Cuneta painting so i take some shoot tas tinanung ko mga kasama nya kung
knino and they say kay Anino daw i talk to him a
while sinabi ko na ang galing and he just smile tinanong ko sya kung
mahirap ba maging artist ka c dapat madami naiisip and he answered "hindi
