I'm back home. This prestigious University of the Philippines' College of Fine Arts (UPCFA) has produced the most National Artists (9 so far-than any fine art college) and is the oldest CFA in the Asia. It is here that yours truly was nurtured (and tortured?) as a young, impressionable artist. Should I wait till I'm filthy rich or an old fart to give back to my beloved alma mater? I think not. Kudos to the heroic and accomplished UP professors who denied themselves the greener pastures of far away lands-in the name of nationalism. Sounds quaint, eh? Well, I'm glad for it. Now help me produce the better, next generation Pinoy artisan photographers. Go, UP, go!
