His reply letters came not from the North Pole, but from the home of the majestic Mayon Volcano.
For this year's reply letters, Facebook group Santa Claus_PH sent out postcards featuring artwork by 26-year-old digital artist Angela Brazal from Rizal and Bicolano cartoonist Al Baleda.
Brazal's artwork showed Kendra—the first letter sender to Santa Claus_PH—putting her letter in a mailbox that was once common in the municipality of Tiwi in Albay, as well as four dogs who represent Santa Claus_PH's "elves."
Meanwhile, Baleda's artwork depicts a scene where Filipinos ignite fireworks, give their presents to Santa Claus and build a Christmas tree made of clay pots, which is Tiwi's primary product.
Mayon Volcano is the prominent background of both Brazal's and Baleda's works.
