A Grand Prize winner of the 2011 Shell National Students Art Competition and Vision Petron National Art Competition, his paintings mostly of landscapes and urbanscapes initiate dialogues about man’s place in nature, the constant battle between conquering it and being subjected to its power. Erispe has presented two solo shows to date, and has exhibited in Manila, Philippines and Taipei, Taiwan.
