We got the best craftsmen from Macabebe, Betis and Angeles to put up this retablo. Gener Bautista of Macabebe carved the santos, Charlie Bungay of Betis carved the retablo, Boyet Flores of Betis did the goldleafing and finishing, Romy Bautista of the HAU Carpentry Shop constructed the framework, and the ABSTRAK, a student organization, painted the artwork at the base of the retablo. I did the overall design and supervision, while Alex Castro and Arwin Lingat of Mabalacat served as consultants on iconography.
