Urban Tapestry's 15th Anniversary

Above: For Illustration Friday. Theme from last Friday: "Homage." I opted for a tongue-in-cheek interpretation. :-)

[9:20 am EST update: Just got the official phonecall from my doctor - the follow-up mammogram and ultrasound were all clear. I'm going to enjoy FKO -so- much more now, woohoo! Thank you again for all your support and encouragement.]

Leaving for FilKONtario today! This time I'll be taking a bunch of stuff to sell in the dealer's room (my first time), including acrylic paintings, greeting cards (including my new Blush cards from the UK, which I just found out are going to be sold in JAPAN, woohoo!), 8x8 prints and one (1) piece of pottery. The pottery is a joint project between my friend Luisa and me; she created the hand-thrown pottery and I painted it with a Little Nightmare design.

Urban Tapestry is also donating a special "Squirrels Are Evil And Taking Over The World" package that includes a CD recording of a new song (plus the lyrics/chords), a talking Evil Squirrel, and an original vampire squirrel painting by yours truly.




Our concert is tomorrow night, and I think it should be fun. We'll be including some old songs we haven't performed in a VERY long while as well as a couple of brand-new songs. It's our FIFTEENTH anniversary as a group this year! We've started writing a group history, if you're curious. The version online is very rough; I'll be polishing it after FKO, and Allison will be adding Part 2.

Many thanks to those who posted in response to my abnormal mammogram Blatherpost; thanks especially to those of you who shared your own experiences.

I haven't yet received the official okay from my doctor, but I'm still hoping to hear before I leave for FKO today.

Hope to see some of you at the convention! Have a great weekend, everyone.
