Alfredo Buenaventura 1942 - 1982

Filipino painter from Bulacan, Philippines. Buenaventura briefly studied art at the University of Santo Tomás in Manila. Buenaventura was mentored by his uncle, Cesar Buenaventura

Alfredo used a spatula to create the expressionist fillings that characterize his works and contrasted this technique with the subtle impressionism he learned from his uncle. Alfredo died of a heart disease, shortly before his fortieth birthday.
