Artist Terry Gavino interacts with students who marvels at her work. |
Constantino
described Tita Terry with petite
frame but very commanding presence! In fact, it is not difficult to feel “her
fire and passion” when she is around. She speaks her mind when she knew she had
a piece or two to tell.
Outside the artistic circle, very few knew that Terry Gavino is an artistic genius. She
was instrumental in the design of some of the landmark structures in Roxas
City, namely the Roxas City Hall, Capiz Provincial Memorial Hospital and Ang Panublion Museum. The huge illuminated flowers that adorn the streets of Araneta
Center every Christmas are products of her concept. They have been brought to
Roxas City many times in the past, gracing the city streets during festivities
and special occasions.
Her fiery passion extends to her inkcredible ballpen art. “I want to tell the
Capizenos that all that all they need to create a masterpiece is a ballpoint
point,” she once remarked, shunning “fancy tools” and other expensive art
materials. And what a masterpiece Gavino can create! “Gavino’s
meticiouls renditions exact a lot of concentration and dedication,” Constantino
said. The result of Gavino’s work are intricate and almost-real details of
mostly still-life objects. Gavino balks
at mediocrity but praises quality work. “I expect above-standard performance,”
she said.”because that is what I also give.”
