Although the ideals of Philippine Art are widely accepted locally and globally, it is nevertheless quite flattering to get a nod coming from art enthusiasts around the world. Here are some quotes/descriptions pertaining to Navelino's paintings:
A distinctive artistic form depicting images beyond one's thought. It tackles the haunting disguise of man's desires, motives and rational beliefs. His work is reminiscent of Jackson Pollock's, Arturo Luz's or a combination of both. Most of Navelino's art invokes motion and dynamism in texture, color and form. Navelino is fond of displaying rich color and visually challenging geometric patterns, so much so that sometimes, it takes him years to finish a single art piece. One of his trademarks is a breakthrough ecthing-water color technique which he still uses at present.
