...the local boys wearing tee shirts I painted, such as seen below:



And yeah, I don't recall anybody getting worked up over Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes and John Leguizamo as drag queens.

The costume designer on "To Wong Foo..." was Marlene Stewart.

Back in the early 80s, I used to do airbrush art for her when she had her own line of clothing.

Then she became Madonna's costume designer and I worked on stuff for Madonna, in 1984 and 2001.

After that, she got into the movie biz as costume designer for a Lorenzo Lamas break dancing movie called "Body Rock," which I worked on.

After that, things really took off for her.

I worked on several projects with her, until garment printing technology advanced to where I was no longer needed.

Most recently, she worked on "Top Gun: Maverick," so she's still at it.

BTW, "To Wong Foo..." is available on YouTube for $3.99.
