Angel Flores' pencil on paper sketches and list of objects for his works, created around 1965, when the artist was living in New York.

Angel Flores (1936 - 1968) is a Filipino expatriate artist who died in a motorcycle accident in the US, leaving behind an English girlfriend named Sheila Hollister and around twenty paintings, which Sheila turned over to his two former Ateneo High School classmates, Ramon Katigbak and Benjamin Bautista, in 1969. The paintings were shown on a television talk show, 'Two For The Road,' in 1969, and were included in 'Summer Exhibition' at Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) in 1970 and in the survey, 'A Decade of Developmental Art,' also at the CCP, in 1979. A solo exhibition was also mounted at Joy Dayrit's Print Gallery in 1971.

'Angel Flores' was an fictional persona co-created by Benjamin Bautista, Ramon Katigbak, and 'Angel Flores Jr.' — Roberto Chabet — who was theartist of all the works created.
