art feels bleak, no doubt by intention. We don't recall experiencing his art anywhere else, but we can tell you it works in this title. It’s a dark book, colored darkly, and full of shadows. It may even leave you with a sickly feeling.
A mind full of questions, a sickly feeling—and perhaps that was it’s intention. As much as we hope there’s a second issue, we hope there is isn’t.

You can
help bring the 2nd issue to life

We had such a great time hanging out in the store with Sacramento artist Eric Nguyen. Here’s a photo collage of the event and a link to the replay of our online interview.
I’m excited to have Sacramento’s own Eric Nguyen in the shop to sign his new book White Savior. Learn all about it in this post.
I'm excited to share the completion of many years of work. Also, I'd like you to know, that I''ve started a new email newsletter to talk about all my creative work. If you're a fan or just curious, please check it out on Substack.
The year is quickly coming to its end, but the fun is not! Here’s a look at the Black Friday deals, some upcoming events, and our holiday hours for November.
