EVERYONE DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE !

I was catching up the news last evening on ChannelNewAsia, enjoying my dinner at the same time. What caught my attention was this report PRISONERS GET CREATIVE. The man behind this move is none other than PUEY QUINONES, a young but established filipino fashion designer, who has been conducting weekly workshop in a maximum security prison in the Philippines for the last one and a half year. It touched me to hear these inmates feeling a sense of hope and pride to know that thier work are appreciated outside the prison walls. I saw some of the work produced and they were really quite unique and pretty. One particular inmate could really draw directly onto a fabric piece with such ease. He was a natural ! It's good to know that there are people like Quinones who are paying back to society through this community work ... can't agree with you more that the everyone deserves a second chance. Thank you!

Here are some of his work, ie of those that i like :) .. Courtesy of http://konradphoto.multiply.com
