Actress Heart Evangelista recently showcased her exquisite creations of hand painted Hermes bags at the Volkswagen Showroom in Bonifacio Global City. Heart who uses her real name Love Marie Ongpauco Escudero as a painter, first surprised everyone when she held her first art exhibit at the Ayala Museum in 2014. Today, she has explored painting on luxury bags predominantly Hermes bags using symbols she adores most such as flowers, fish, birds and womanly figures. Some of those bags including Heart’s personal collection were part of her exhibit that also featured her paintings, and hand painted gowns, a collaboration with fashion designer Mark Bumgarner. Love Marie’s husband Senator Chiz Escudero along with her father Reynaldo and sister Camille were present at the event. Guests were treated to an unlimited supply of Moet & Chandon, Hennessy VSOP, Glenmorangie, and Terrazas as they partied the night away to the music of DJ Christina Bartges.
