I googled my Uncle’s name hoping to find his blog because my mom just mentioned he maintained one but what I found is far better, I found his website! It featured his paintings and sculptures.

Here are my favorites so far…

“Brother and Sister” is my favorite painting because it reminds me of the different stories my Mom told me about my dear Uncle back when they were still kids. And he loved Coke just as much as Mom does. They even have a name for the sound that the bottle makes when you open it. And according to Mom, he could hear this faint sound and would know it’s time for merienda. We all miss you Uncle Mario…

And my favorite sculpture is “Knowing Nothing 2″ due to the fact I have an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and there’s something about that hole which captivated me.

Don’t forget to visit my uncle’s website at www.mariocaoile.com next time you’re online…
