The blogger is a follower of the blog of Shelley's Scraps by John Shelly, an accomplished "roving" book illustrator and creator from the UK. He had a one-man show recently at the Yui Garden gallery in Nakamadchidai, Yokohama, Japan. I have great admiration for artists like Shelley, whose art has taken him to many countries. Not possessing his gift, the blogger can only wished he had this inborn talent that he could have exploited. The blogger envies him. Juan S.P. Hidalgor, Jr., the Ilokano literary icon, is also endowed with this kind of art and the blogger wonders whether the former Bannawag magazine deskman profited from practising it. Reminds me also of the late Alejandro Hufana of Poro Point, La Union, an accomplished painter and poet.
