Desu

Pen & Ink study for a Painting

To many Filipinos, they have the ritual of spilling the first glass of alcohol to the ground as a sacrifice to the devil. This tradition is believed to halt the devil from creating any ill among the revelers. To the Mangyan on the island of Mindoro, this ritual is called Desu.

This has a lovely old illustrative feel to it. Such a good job, interesting to know such a thing is practiced for sure.

Greetings Lilith

My thanks for your positive response to my work.

As they say in the drinking toast, "Sa Demonyo" (to the devil), which still continues among many people, rich or poor, educated or not

May I also invite you to view my students works at:

I'll accept that invitation and start looking through that gallery more thoroughly. I saw such beautiful creations in the featured section alone! I'll read what the page is being used for, since I'm assuming multiple artists share it. You've hooked me with such a polite response.
If it's not rude...

Salamat at Samuli,

Lilith
