Laurence Yuyen Ravina, a Facebook user, shared a video and photo of his amazing crayon artwork featuring Juan Karlos. The post immediately spread like wildfire on social media and elicited reactions from the online community.
The artist from Duljo, Cebu City just used crayons to complete his stunning artwork. He chose Juan Karlos as the subject in his composition, a fellow Bisaya artist who has made a mark in the Philippine music scene.
According to Laurence, he felt a strong connection with Juan Karlos because they share a common regional background and he idolizes the musician for his distinctive style of music.
“Una po is nagpapa-inspire lang po ako sa mga kapwa ko artist at sa mga nagsisimula pa lang na hindi ka kailangan na bumili ng mamahalin na art materials na makagawa ng ganitong obra, practice lang nang practice po. Si Juan Karlos po napili ko kasi kapwa kami bisaya tapos idolo ko siya in how he expressed his style of music,” Ravina said.
