Last Attempt at Portraiture

Looking over at my photo files, I found this. It’s a photo shot by my grandniece, Angel. She took it while I was signing a portrait I made of her. Angel is Alyana’s cousin. It was my last attempt to sketch a portrait on-the-spot.

Autographing on the last attempt sketch…hahaha!

Na asssign kaming magtaong-bahay. At dahil walang magawa nagdrowingan na lang! This was in Delaware, U.S.A. in 2013 when I went to attend the wedding of my niece’s youngest daughter’s wedding. In short, another of my so many grandnieces on earth.

Dare to pose anyone — at your own risk? You just need to freeze for about 15 minutes…

A Mi Patria Joins Silent O and Ultimo Adios in Gallaudet University Archives

Last July 29, my family and I went to Gallaudet University located in Florida Avenue, Washington, D. C. to meet Ms. Diana Moore, the university Deaf Librarian Collections and Archives Head to donate a copy of “A mi Patria — 5 Selected Poems of Jose Rizal in Filipino Sign Language.” I also gave a copy of “Collection Building: Filipininana,” a compilation of my brother’s writings on Filipiniana. Ms. Moore toured us around the library and showed the exhibit on Peace Corps featuring the works of Deaf volunteers.

With A mi Patria, I also gave Gallaudet’s Library a copy of “Collection Building: Filipiniana,” the last book I published on my brother’s compilation of writings on Filipiniana.
