1. Research on the styles and techniques of abdulmari imao in doing his artworks
> abdulmari imao is known for using okir, sarimanok and the naga as motifs in his artworks and he is credited for populazing the motifs to the Filipino national consciousness. Abdulmari imao draws inspiration from tausug and maranao art. Also, his islamic faith is also a source of inspiration in his art as evidence in his sculptures composed of elements of allah's name through arabic calligraphy. He persevered to unite an innate sense to continue the carving and painting traditions of his Tausug forebears with a more modern sensibility that created abstracted patterns for sculpture and painting that combines these motifs with cubism. He has integrated the form of the sarimanok and the fish on its peak or claws as integral elements of his paintings and sculptures. He calls these combined compositions the "saribong" meaning the fusion of the sarimanok, pako rabong, and islamic motifs such as the dome and crescent moon.

Make/paint an artwork and explain why did you choose to paint that particular artwork or explain the meaning behind your artwork.

I chose to painted the "sunset" not just because its one of the beautiful thing that we can see every at the end of the day. But beacuse I realized that sunset is part of how each day ends. Days become weeks, and then the weeks become months, then months turn into years. After it all, we look back to notice the commonality between the days and years, and how the sunset has helped to transform us to be better people. Moreover, the sunset is our reminder that the day is going to end, it's a sign that the workers and people will going home to their family to eat dinner and they need to rest because another day will come. Sunset is a sign that the day is going to end but before that we can see how beautiful the sun will go down before darkness will spread. That the day has end and another day will come tomorrow, that a new opportunity or challenges will come for you. A reminder that at the end of the day, its not only the day has end but the thing that you survive another day and you are given a chance again to rest and to start another day tomorrow, to be a better person, and another day to survive.
