Answer:
D. Mauro Malang Santos
Explanation:
Mauro (Malang) Santos, commonly known as just Malang, is a Filipino cartoonist and illustrator. He was born on January 20, 1928, in Santa Cruz, the Philippine Islands and, at the age of 19, dropped out of formal education in order to begin working in the art department of the Manila Chronicle.
His bright and charming depictions of Philippine culture and society in the early years of his career and further developing it to somber, melancholic tone make up for his distinctive abstract style. Malang did not just have a blossoming career in the arts but opened doors for budding artists and enthusiasts.
Among the international masters, he was most influenced by the Russian-French expressionist Marc Chagall. In the 1950s, Malang started painting vignettes of Manila's folk culture in gouache— opaque watercolor—that he found the easiest to use.
