Jhun Ciolo Diamante took up and earned a degree in Architecture but his love for the great outdoors in San Pablo, Laguna made him a plein air painter instead. At an early age, his love for this painting genre found recognition when he received a number of awards in on-the-spot drawing contests. That inspired and motivated him to develop his artistic interest.

He became a graphic artist and that brought him and his young family to Bahrain in the Middle East where he continued his passion for his art. He and his fellow Filipino artists painted together and joined multicultural group art exhibitions to keep their art alive. In Bahrain, he was introduced to computers. He got hooked by its magic and since then his love for outdoor painting found its rival for his attention.

In 1997, Jhun brought his family to Canada. Ever the devoted family man, he continued to work as a graphic artist to provide for his brood. At work, he met a fellow artist and member of the Philippine Artists Group. This lead to his joining the group and became the first of several young talents that brought more vigour to the PAG as he proved to be one of its most hard working members. In a short period of time, Jhun became an invaluable member and was elected as its secretary for two years. However his unparalled mastery of the modern computer and creative web designing made him a class by himself. Now, Jhun is the group's computer guru and permanent webmaster of the internationally acclaimed website: www.philippineartists.com, a virtual gallery for all Filipino artists around the world. With his growing stature as a webdesigner, he created a number of high profile customized websites integrating the most current softwares. This multi-talented artist continues to awe people for his wizardry in multimedia design using the computer as a digital canvas when not indulging in his outdoor painting.
