But one customer has made an artist so happy by offering him Php15k for the order! Danilo Parpan Quizon Jr. shared a photo of his work while also narrating their conversation.

According to Danilo, the client sent him a message with a picture of a family posing in their casual attire. The client wanted to know if he could transform the picture into a formal family portrait. Considering what the family was wearing, this would certainly require a lot of talent and imagination in the artist’s part.
