Answer:

Painting

The first paintings were commissionned works during the Spanish colonial era. Since most art produced during the first two centuries of Spanish occupation were for the church, the friars enforced strict supervision over their PRODUCTION. Until the 19th century, art was only for the church and religious use.

There is also some Chinese influence which can be found in the brush handling.

Tagalog painters Jose LODEN, Tomas Nazario and Miguel de los Reyes, did the first still life paintings in the country. They were commissioned in 1786 by a Spanish botanist to PAINT the flora and fauna found in the country.

Secular subject matter in painting only INCREASED during the 19th century. With more tourists, ilustrados and foreigners demanding souvenirs and decorations from the country, tipos del pais developed in painting. These watercolor paintings show the different types of inhabitants in the Philippines in their different native costumes that show their SOCIAL status and occupation. It also became an album of different native costumes. Damian Domingo y Gabor (ca. 1790-1832) was the most popular artist who worked in this style.
