Good Things Come In Threes

Work on cataloging the Pantages Portfolio continues swimmingly along, with new discoveries happening on a daily basis! Judy is researching this delightful painting, a work by artist Roger San Miguel (b. 1940.) It features a lovely young woman holding a large fish, with two others to her right and left. You can't help but notice her dark and hip-length hair, beautiful face, and feminine form. 

It is possible that San Miguel chose to reference to the holy trinity in this work by including three prominent and oversized fish in the design.  

San Miguel is a popular and well known artist from the Philippines.  He skillfully and authentically captures Filipinos in happy, family, and/or "everyday" situations. Many of his paintings include children. Examples of his work are on display at the Philippines International Convention Center and have also been included in national and international exhibitions over the years.
