Big News

After months of coordinating my artists, the new website is finally up. It is a new look and hopefullly easier to use and enjoy.

August Gloom......not really!

Even though the economy has taken a toll on so many business' throughout the world I must say it could be worse and I appreciate the fact that my shingle is still hanging on the outside of my door stating 'Open for business!' Yes, it is slow compared to previous years, in fact, quite a decline in the volume of jobs and budgets in general have been lower, but there is still business being conducted. I read a quote recently that I found humorous ~ 'The only thing more overrated than natural childbirth is the joy of owning your own business!'

Here is the news and just a few of the jobs that we have been working on the past month ~

Just for Fun. Every month in our email we will have a calendar page for the month with a fun image from one of the artists to download. Just click on the image on the left. This one was created by Eric Larsen.
