An artist couldn’t hide his sadness after a teacher reportedly destroyed the painting he had created for two months.
In a Facebook post, Edmar Casinillo shared his conversation with the teacher who asked him to paint their family photo.
After two months of creating the painting, Edmar delivered the art to the teacher.
However, the teacher refused to pay, saying she had no money.
The teacher even claimed that she already destroyed the painting because they’re not satisfied with the work made by Edmar.
“Di ko maidisplay nakakahiya akala ko nga wala na e dahil sa inis ko un sinunog ko,” the teacher said.
Edmar couldn’t hide her sadness from her followers on social media.
“Ansakit lang na sinunog yung 14heads oil paint ko, sana binalik niyo nalang po ma’am kung di niyo po nagustuhan,” Edmar said.
The post already reached 14,000 shares as of writing.
Some netizens urged Edmar to report the teacher to the Department of Education (DepEd) saying that what his customer did was unethical.
“Grabe naman si ma’am hingi ka ng payo kng ano Dpat mong gawin hayaan mo na ang pera pero my parusa na Dpat nyang harapin SA pag sunog nya sa painting mo wla syang karapatan para sunugin ang painting mo binalik nalang nya sana kng ayaw nya at inamin pa nya na sinunog nya,” netizen Tessie said.
“Wala ba tayo lawyer na pwede tumulong dito? Hindi nabayaran oh? Pag walang naparusahan uulit lang mga gantong gawain sa mga kawawang artists.” netizen Chris commented.
