Books authored, co-authored, & featured photosVics Magsaysay is a self-taught photographer, painter, sculptor, graphic and furniture designer, writer and an alternative healer. He studied chemical and civil engineering. His formal studies in the scientific field were soon replaced by his passion for creative expression catapulting him in the multi-faceted field of art. He was consultant art director of a five-star hotel in Manila and at the same time worked in his graphic design outfit as a graphic designer and advertising photographer. In 1977, he was recommended by the hotel to assist a photographer from the popular German magazines Stern and Geo. After a month of shooting extensively in the Philippine rainforests, mountains, valleys and cities with that photographer, the experience left an indelible mark in his consciousness. Vics traveled to many countries to compile his stock shots he sold to ad agencies, hotels and travel-related industries. His photos have been published in newspapers, travel magazines and coffee-table books in different parts of the globe.
After 20 years of design and photography, he started painting and doing sculptures in the early 90’s and simultaneously studied different modalities of alternative healing like acupressure, pranic healing, use of herbs and mind dynamics up to this period. He has had several one-man and group exhibitions in painting and sculptures in Asia and America. Place of Tides: Visualization using nature’s energies, written by Australian Margaret Taplin was published in 1999 using his nature photographs. He wrote a booklet, Love Thoughts: A prescription for all our worries a year after and before he migrated to America. Recently, he co-authored with American mentor legends like Brian Tracy, Charles T. Jones, Jim Rohn, etc., in Don Boyer’s book series, The Power of Mentorship: Developing the Leadership Within. Vics also has a regular observational and reflective column, Pool of Reflections, in several newspapers in California. Despite these works, he still continues facilitating workshops in healing, photography and, now, what he called P.I.P.E. (Psychological Induction for Personal Empowerment) for weight loss, goal-setting and removing deep-seated emotions, the root cause of many debilitating dis-eases. According to him, learning is a lifetime process. He never fails to attend seminars, be it about transpersonal growth or new-technologies about digital art. “Like in a classic Zen stories, we must always humbly empty our cup to receive more,” he quips.
