Dear Mailing List Members,
It's been a long time since I've addressed my mailing list, and I'm sorry for lagging. This saturday, my latest show, "She's my Heroin(e)" is opening at Copro/Nason Gallery in Santa Monica. The show will feature all new paintings and drawings. Mari Inukai and Chet Zar are also having opening receptions for their own shows in the two other rooms in the gallery.
Alot of people have been wondering what was going on with the artist colorway of "Mugs Bunny". Well, to compliment saturday's opening reception, I'll be selling 48 (of the 90) sets of "Mugs" at the show. They will available only to show attendents. I'm trying to figure out what to do with the rest of the available "Mugs Bunny's", and how to make them available fairly to list members, so if you have any ideas, please feel free to share your ideas.
Anyways, that's all for now, I hope to se you at the show!

"PIECE!".
-Luke Chueh
