I was really amazed with the works of Dalena. Most are contemporary religious paintings. I really like his style so much. Most religious paintings that I know are baroque in style, like the paintings of Bartolomé Esteban Murillo. Dalena's style is unique and "light" to look at. In addition, the house has a really cozy feel. If I wasn't shy, I could have slept on one of the couches!
After the Araw ng Pakil Turumba Procession, my friend asked me if I want to visit Danilo Dalena's house. I didn't know that the house is open for public. And so, we headed to the "House of Paintings". My friend knocked several times but no one opened the door. So, we decided to invite ourselves in, hehe. I was really amazed with the works of Dalena.
