Mga Sining ni Ronnie Sapinoso

Ronnie Sapinoso is a Filipino 3D animation artist.  Although he graduated from college with a law degree, he chose to pursue his passion in film animation instead.  His ambition is to someday become a director like Steven Spielberg and achieve an Oscar Award.  He worked as a writer and made some novels and short stories or wakasan during the dying years of Philippine comics.  He was a graphics artist from 2000 to 2004.  Today, he continues to struggle and persevere in pursuing his passion because people see his disabilities rather than his abilities.

3D Artist with Cerebral Palsy Yearns for Equality

It takes an enormous amount of courage and ability to overcome such things as cerebral palsy, much more if you have to pay the rent, utilities, buy food and clothing and feed your family. People in such physical state go thru pain, rejection and sufferings in their everyday life. But for Ron Sapinoso, it is not about the disability, it is about the power of positive thinking, strong will and determination to succeed. Thru his 3D animation, he is knocking on everyone’s hearts to open their minds and become human.
