good day
Hello friends,
Many exciting things happening in my world. Rena and I are making the final touches on our shop. Here's a sneak peek!
If you were a fly on the wall at RDSF, you'd hear a combination of moaning about postmen who don't knock when they know we are in the back (we are still getting tons of merchandise in everyday) and squealing when we open boxes of cool stuff and set it all up on our shelves.
Today I spent most of the day in my studio working on my upcoming show at Firefly in Venice, CA, Charming Creatures. I made some shadowboxes today, and here is my favorite.

Cheers.



Things are looking great at the shop! I'm making a shopping list....wish I could be there in person to touch it all (and help you with painting, etc.) It's probably better for my wallet that I'm not there:)
Your new work is fantastic too!

Are those little bird feet by Lee Hale?
The display looks enticing.

I'm eagerly awaiting the day when you expand northward to Portland (a Rare Device here would be just lovely)! I guess I should let you open the one in CA first...
Gorgeous shadowbox.

I'm a friend of Hector Lee. He told me he saw you last Th and mentioned my admiration of your art, blog, flickr, style, outlook, goals. I told him it is kind of embarassing, I like Lisa so much! I plan to take Hector to your new shop when we visit the city in Jan. Can't wait to meet you in person and load my eyes w/ all the beauty.

it must be so hard not to want to covet everything that you get delivered.
