Last year the DVA was the cherry to a great day in Chicago. Hope to make it down despite the price of gas. Any details on what this years mug is going to be?- Man do I wish I could be apart of that.

Soooooo . . . How'd the show go?

I REALLY wish I could have been there in person, but I would love to see some pics and hear from some folks that attended the opening!

I have a set of my Big Eye Menehune paintings in the show, and I also got to kitcsh-ify the great Tiki Farm/Derek Yaniger Tiki Mag Mug for DvA.

I would love to see pics of how all these mugs turned out~What a fun project!

Thanks again David for inviting me to be in the show!
