Since I go GAGA over paintings and any artwork, I am going to take you to Davao, where you can find Kublai's ARTWORK UBERLOAD.
Kublai's paintings are displayed in Ponce Suites, Dona Vicenta, Bajada, Davao City, Philippines. Ponce Suites is a hotel. However, good news to those who would like to have a tour as walk-in visitors just to take a look at his work because the entrance fee is only Php20 (as of December 2013; Price may change).
Kublai Millan is Davao's prolific artist as described by Wikipedia. He was born on July 8, 1974 in Cotabato City. (My brother was also born on 8th of July. Wow! Artists...) He finished Fine Arts at the University of the Philippines. (taken from wikipedia)
If you have visited Sultan Kudarat, you could find his work "KAMPILAN" and "RISEN CHRIST" in Tagum City.
If you happen to visit People's Park, Davao, you will see a lot of gigantic sculptures in the area. And those humongous work of art are products of his imaginations. Please check this out for People's Park Davao

The array of lovely framed works here is a proof that the artist has already explored his artistry in different genre. You may see in these creations that his designs varies from the type of materials he is using.
The drawings above may look like a simple drawing. However, if you take a closer look, aztec details was used to make a lovely and unique finish for the designs.
Coconut husks and twigs are indigenous materials or scrap for the eyes of common people but for our wonderful artist's mind, it is ART itself.
I was really fascinated how these weird looking arts look like. When I tried to go nearer, I found out that these are old screws, unused small parts of probably everything like small parts of karaoke machine or tv or fridge. How lovely is that!
Kublai Millan is definitely one of the artists that we, Filipinos could be proud of. Proud to be PINOY.
Don't forget to drop by Ponce Suites when you are in Davao. Have a lovely day everyone.
Love from,
