ALSO

I found out I was chosen to be in the upcoming TRIBUTE ai-ap web gallery for 2009. Hotness!

AND



News on my book:

Autumn - the collected works of Ray Jones 2007-2009, 8x10 and 42 pages. --The book contains work from my "book project" -Peaceoffering, as well as the TBFL (to bury future lovers) series now simply known as Autumn.

I decided to publish my book through Blurb.com. The paperback is $29.95 not including shipping. I'm making a $5 profit from each book-- so if you buy one when its released, you're essentially buying me a meal haha. I'm waiting for my first proof to come to me on May 4th, I'll post details on ordering here if I'm happy with the turn out.

CONGRATULATIONS! Oh man, I am definitely attending your MFA show. I've been wanting to stop by your studio but I've been so damn swamped, I can't wait to see your fabulous ink work in person.
