Angelito "Jo" Florendo

When Angelito Florendo finished his elementary grades, he had to stop schooling, so he immediately started on art apperenticeship under Martin Catalos. Tanay’s UP trained art mentor who gave informal instruction at home to young people inclined towards the arts. But it was in the ‘90s when Jojo, as he is called, was actively joining the on-the-spot painting session of the Tanay Artist Group, that he came under the influence of senior TAG artist jun Tiongco and Lito Payawal. Ka Ante Catalos, his beloved teacher, would pass away in 1993, but up to the last, Catalos gave Jojo and his young companions art instruction on a regular basis, even in his last months of illness. Jojo’s characteristics subject matter are white flowers- still life groupings of fresh, white flowers that serve to enhance the glimmer of glass and vase.
