Dulay, who works as a family driver and does taekwondo on the side, describes herself as a self-taught artist and a proud overseas Filipino worker. She comes from a family of artists in the Philippines.
Molina whose art works were recently featured in a local publication, found her artistic bent while she was still in high school in Laguna, when she joined non-formal lessons in art. She has been working as a migrant worker in Hong Kong for seven years.

Busy as they are with their domestic duties, both women still find time to dabble in various art forms and join exhibitions co-organized by Guhit Kulay International, a Filipino migrant artist collective set up in 2017 by Cristina Cayat, who excels in designing and sewing native Cordillera outfits.
The group’s immediate past president, Noemi Manguera, has migrated to Canada, where her artworks are often featured in exhibits and are highy prized.
