Thanks - I really enjoyed your pieces behind the scenes on Silvering Path. I'll have to go see the performance this weekend at Free Sheep. It's too bad you live in Portland. If you were a Seattlite I'd want to do a portrait of you for the Seattle Channel.
Me and my partner Kamala just moved to Portland 2 years ago after living in Seattle for 14. And now it is kinda crazy because now I have all this work coming my way in Seattle. I'm in town almost every other week.
Oh well... I love what you guys do and these portraits are great. I look forward to more!
