yeah workin on a bunch of stuff- tryin' to keep up with all the shows and having enough work, but most importantly tryin' to keep the love in each peace. i did 21 drawings in 2 1/2 days - it made my hand all sore and swollen- so yeah, workin' like a madman.

Hi. My name's Jose. I bought one of your pieces (walking under a pink moon). It looks great on my wall and traveled fine. Anyway I hope you look into getting some business cards, there are places to get them cheap or free on line. Also the hanger wire was very high in the back and I actually had to hang it on a nail instead of the hangers I usually use, so keep that in mind. Of course the piece is beautiful so that is my only critique. I normally would just use wood screws, but wanted to maintain the integrity of the piece. Anway I am joseinorlando on gmail, so if you have a mailing list and can let me know of any shows you have coming that would be awesome. Especially in the ATL.
