November brings falling leaves, lots of food and, of course, Black Friday – the first day of the holiday shopping frenzy! Maybe you’re already in the giving spirit or maybe the bug hasn’t bitten you yet. Or maybe you break out into a cold sweat just thinking about having to buy gifts that your pre-teen nephews might not consider [...]

When most people think of winter approaching, it’s all snowmen, rosy cheeks, and hot chocolate. But for me, it’s a little different. I think of endless shoveling, 4 wheel drive, and walking my dog in 2 feet of snow. I was “lucky” to be one of many who experienced “Snowmageddon 2010,” a series of snow storms that hit the East Coast this [...]

This month’s Artist Spotlight is on Breanna, one of our Production Artists.  She has displayed some of her photo collages, which a fellow Inker described as “phosphorescent,” and I would have to agree.  The colors are luminous and the tropical subjects are a great contrast to the changing seasons.
