About the Artwork
Mark Jeffrey Santos’ art thrives in an alternate realm of fictional and surreal dreamscapes. The adventures of his signature wide-eyed character, Mister Sasquatch, beckon viewers to rediscover the joys of youthful wonder. In Ang Pusang Kartero, a giant feline friend accompanies Mister Sasquatch on his whimsical journey. The artwork is the inspiration of the children’s book of the same title written by Genaro Gojo Cruz and illustrated by Santos himself.
