Thank you Stan Sensei! It sounds like the next few weeks will be busy for all of you.
I'm not sure if it has been mentioned, but what is the size of both new prints?
I hope the show is both successful and enjoyable for you and your team!
Best wishes to you, Julie, Daniel and Emi!
Please say hello to Kyle-san (jabba359) for me when he sees you!

The size of the new prints is the same as the old ones--11x17 inches.
The mini-prints which mostly feature Julie's art are 5x7 inches.

Whew. Preview night done. I burned a bunch of time getting a couple non-Usagi exclusives (woohoo!), so spent the rest of the time trying not to stress out as I bought tons of Usagi merch. Julie was a champ, signing a giant pile of mini-prints. I got tons of pins, some of the prints, and a few other assorted things. At least I got most of the buying done. Just a few more things, so I can relax now.

I think my favorite piece is the "Picasso" Tomoe (at least that's what I'm calling it) because of the great story behind it. Stan had drawn the Tomoe seen on the left of that photo, but somebody (I forget who) told him the eyes were off, so Stan said he'd fix it. When he came back, the "fix" was Picasso Tomoe. It cracks me up every time I look at it.

I was going to ask what was the deal there, but that explains it
