The Mystery of Apo Whang-od (Art Print)

CA$10.00
High quality print on heavy stock. The colours are vibrant and the art piece looks spectacular framed. Each print is hand signed with date and print number.

​With my western education, I first thought that history could only be exchanged in written text, spoken word, and recorded image. The main figure of this art piece is Apo Whang-od, a close to a century year old artist who keeps the tattooing culture of her people alive. With this art piece I want to honour her, and make others aware of what she represents.

Lola and Child (Art Print)

CA$10.00
High quality print on heavy stock. The colours are vibrant and the art piece looks spectacular framed. Each print is hand signed with date and print number.

In the Filipino culture, a Lola (Grandmother) plays a central role. They are providers, caregivers, chefs, and rocks. I would argue to say that they are the backbone of most families. While riding on the TTC by St. Clair West station I was able to see a grandchild feed his Lola. It was double special because he was eating a chocolate bar. He took a few bites, but before he finished, he knew he had to share some with his Lola.

A Safe Ride Home (Art Print)

CA$10.00
High quality print on heavy stock. The colours are vibrant and the art piece looks spectacular framed. Each print is hand signed with date and print number.

The TTC attracts a plethora of lovely moments. By trade, I am an educator, and the after school commute can be quite cumbersome after a long day. One day on the way back to my neighborhood in Jane and Finch, I saw a mother fall asleep at the front of the bus. Her young kids just patiently waited for her to wake up. No fuss, or plea for attention, they just sat there and let her get some rest. I thought it was a moment worth capturing.
