I was just in there today to see if the books where already available to ensure I get a couple copies before the mad dash on Saturday. The answer is no and won't be until mid day on Saturday.
They had a end cap set with some cheap mass produce tiki junk. Also there were people working on setting up the gallery which I'm uncertain if it was just for their usual art or for the book signing.
I'm looking forward to this! Especially since it's blocks away from me casa. I would invite people over for drinks but our home bar is still pending by my lazy arse.

opened the kiln, and was pleasantly surprised. With no testing, the 4 color mix for the glaze came out spot on for what i was shooting for. So we will indeed be walking around with these. They are pretty large, most likely will hold at least two mai tais.
Though they will be holding mai tais saturday night, the image these are based on traditionally holds something else.
Alright gotta get some lunch, enough teasers, see you saturday night!

Living in Southern California is the way to go. We are missing so much up here.
Hey Jay, Dan has been having fun teasing me because he got credit for taking the photos in the book. I took the photos, he was the gofer who brought each art object from the collection to the velvet covered table for me to photograph.
Every day I love the book more. You did a wonderful write up to go with the photos, thank you for all the hard work. Wendy
