Waiting tables in the Live Music Capital

Open for business!

This is the new OPEN sign I purchased today for Art In A Nutshell.  It's NEWON, not neon.  ?  Anyway, got it for $15 cheaper than it was listed for on Craigslist (my  first time to bargain with someone via text messages) and the guy met me down the street at Bouldin Creek Coffeehouse for extra convenience.  There's a sticker on the back that is dated 2004 and the guy said he got it from a storage unit of someone who didn't pay their bill.   Art In A Nutshell is open for business Saturday and Sundays 11 - 5pm at 2209 S. 1st. St. Ste. B1 Come in to have your scribbles read by the Old Man in the Peanut who will transform them into a work of art.  Visit www.scribblism.com for an example.

Sorry for ignoring you Blogger.com, you can blame Facebook.com

Much has happened since August of 2009 - including a broken finger on my right hand, a move into a new residence, opening of a new gallery called Art In A Nutshell, and a 5 year anniversary party for the Old Man in the Peanut at Sullivan's Steakhouse!
