Rommel, a New York based artist, painted 14 artworks in the midst of Covid-19 pandemic. The artworks are a mix of water color art and acrylic art in water color paper and canvas. His inspiration are the thousands of medical and healthcare frontliners risking their own lives to save the lives of millions battling the disease.

Known for his modern art, Rommel painted colorful strokes in palettes of orange, pinks and blues. Framed in hot pink and yellow backgrounds are the frontliner characters wearing PPE’s. These subjects are holding covid vaccines, smiling despite this very challenging and unprecendent healthcare war against this covid-19 nasty virus. To share his creation to more people, he exclusively converted these artworks to wearable art – shirts, bags and tapestries for UP College of Medicine Batch 97 who will be celebrating its Silver Jubilee in 2022.

Rommel aim to motivate, inspire and pay respect to these heroes who give hope to everyone.
