NU12 (5) -Calling All Artists Who Will Decorate The Jollijeeps In Makati

Makati is like the center of business in the Philippines. We all see the tall buildings of corporations, hospitals, embassies, condominiums, and other establishments. Several employees, eat in their respective canteens, go out in restaurants or buy food in Jollijeep that are posted along the side of the road. As we can see, jollijeeps are either small plain-looking or covered by a tarpaulin stainless steel mobile canteen.
Jollijeeps are unique feature of our country and we can use this to at least give us a better image by making it look good. A lot of foreigners are visiting Makati for business and other purposes. In line with this, I would like to suggest a contest for all artists who are interested and have the heart to put their creativity in doing a mosaic in our very own Jollijeeps. If jeepneys are known for being vibrant, jollijeeps can also be similar to that image. It would be of a mosaic type of art. The theme would be anything that would promote tourism in the Philippines. I choose mosaic because an artist will have more room for creativity and they'll be using more colors. This will brighten and give life to the dull looking jollijeeps. It would help attract more customers because it would give an appealing look for the mobile canteens that will also be of help to boost their sales.  The artists will be using water-resistant paints so that the work of art will stay for a long period of time. In the long run, painting the Jollijeep can also protect it from tarnishing. The top 3 most beautifully painted and captured the theme of the contest will be rewarded and will have the chance to exhibit his works in the mall. The winner will be screened and scored by selected judges (50%) and will be voted by the citizens of Makati.
Many Filipino artists will be known and will be appreciated. Jollijeeps will also be another representation of the uniqueness of our country. 3.5
