Bueno Silva: “Would like to share this with you. The year of 2011, De Paul University, Chicago, Illinois have acquired 7 (Seven varied sizes) paintings of mine (almost all my Red Table Composition) and also my son Eulalio Fabie Silva, III's 7 (seven varied sizes) paintings as we are both included with the other Selected Artists for the New Building, the Arts, Humanities and Letters adjoining Fine Arts.

As Filipino Artists with my son of Chicago, Illinois are so proud and grateful to be included in the Institution of the Arts in the USA.


Amongst the Artists in Chicago, Illinois, my son and me were the only Filipino Artists given this very prestigious account with the Art Institution of the USA.

I cannot forget how I have struggled as artist-painter having our four Children:  Eulalio III, MJ Silva-Tam, Joanne Silva-Arreola and Patrick. With them, am so grateful, proud and happy and without their support and assistance with my beloved wife Patria  I would have not reached this far with the graces of our Lord. Now, here is the fruit of our destiny, a Legacy of our Family name SILVA/ DE SILVA in the World of the Arts. Mabuhay Philippines”
