Honored to be among this group of artists selected for the KALA Veterans Residency Program. When I was awarded the KALA Fellowship I was the one veteran they selected to be a Fellow for 2023-2024. I've been working at home getting my ideas flushed out so when I begin making work in January 2024 I can hit the ground running.

I haven't been able to get to KALA to begin working since I received the fellowship. Life took over and you know how that goes. But this past week I finally made it and began scanning images out of a souvenir book from the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. Since I don't have Adobe Illustrator, I also cleaned up a vector file of my art from the Manila Men vest made at the Joan Mitchell Center in NOLA. I'll be using this art to make silkscreen patches on heavy material and sew them on more suit vests. I'd like to have a collection of older Filipino men in NOLA wear them and get their photos, but that may be a reach. Will see. Anyway, I can't wait to finish my drawings on zinc and plastic plates so I can start making drypoint prints next time I'm at KALA.
