Peeled and Sliced
Also by Felix
Felix Catarata splits a ripe papaya open and lets the color do the talking. This still life in acrylic captures two halves of a papaya fanned across the canvas in bright orange and gold, seeds gathered like scattered ink along the hollow center, set against loose, gestural strokes of deep teal and umber. Catarata works in a painterly realism, rendering the papaya's flesh with enough texture and light to feel freshly cut, while the surrounding brushwork stays loose and expressive. A vivid fruit painting for a kitchen, dining space, or any wall that could use a jolt of tropical color, and a striking addition to any collection of Philippine still life art from Cebu and beyond. This original acrylic-on-canvas painting measures 40 x 30 cm and was completed in 2026. It's signed by the artist and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. The piece is priced at ₱24,000 and is sold unframed.

Felix Catarata was drawing long before he ever picked up a brush. Growing up in Bogo City, Cebu, he used…” Read more
