As featured in major publications

“Though Addie’s works are lush and luxuriant – notice the flaring petals of the magnolia, the bird’s preening feathers – all are bathed in a visual quietude steeped in serenity, exulting in solitude.”

Cid Reyes

Artist and Critic

“Addie’s art transcends mere aesthetics. It embodies a deeper purpose: her belief in art as a divine gift to illuminate spirituality and serve humanity.”

Imahica

Art Gallery

“Tita Addie has been like a mother to us at Arte Pintura Gallery. Her joyful and vibrant personality lights up every occasion. Despite her high stature in life, she remains humble and down-to-earth. A prolific artist, Tita Addie has been consistently passionate about the arts for decades. I wish her all the best in everything—she truly is an icon.”

Dr. Aladin Antiqueño

Dean of Fine Arts, GK College

“Addie is most known for her signature style featuring bold and radiant florals. She has always believed that her talent is a gift to glorify God and to make Him known.”

Galerie Francesca

Art Gallery

“I love Tita Addie. I owe a lot of where I am in the art scene to her. Her generosity knows no bounds and her honesty, blunt they may be, is a much needed salvo for us artists to improve our crafts.”
