During my Blogger booboo, I saw this comment by someone I didn't know. He commented on my post about an art exhibit. So I clicked on the link to see who it was. When the blog loaded, I saw brilliance. Brilliance like this:



Those are four of his amazing work, copied, squashed together and cropped to fit this blog. Go to his blog to see more awesomeness.

Anyway, I tried to scour his blog for information on who he is... I figured out that his family name is Tabuena, as that is part of the name of the blog, as well as the URL. But I didn't know who he was. I Google-ed "Tabuena" and found http://www.tabuenaart.com. The URL is exactly how the Tabuena blogger's URL starts... But as I read on, TabuenaArt.com is about Romeo Tabuena, one of the acclaimed Filipino artists of this age. His art is awesome (err... they should be, for him to be so recognized), but it's not exactly the same art as the Blogger Tabuena's is.

And so I went back to my original SERP and looked for writings about other Tabuenas... I found Tata Botata's blog, which, apparently, is a pretty popular blog in the art circle. And, I found in that blog that the Tabuena blog I was looking at is owned by one named Eric Tabuena. I'm not sure yet if he's at all connected to Romeo Tabuena... I mean, they do share the same family name, and their art is somewhat similar... They both use cubism, I think. Sorry, I don't know much about art, so my terms may be out of whack. Maybe he's a relative or son, I don't know.

I'll look into this more after I get home from vacation, and I'll update this blog entry. But for now, my friends, stroll on over to Eric's blog. Go visit Romeo Tabuna's site, too. His work is classically cool... Although, on a side note, his website needs revamping. I was already imagining a new layout for him as I browsed the pages. Heeheehee.

Happy art viewing!
