    Dear Emiko:

    Welcome to crafthaus ! I am very glad you joined us. You probably don't remember me, but we met at SAG in Cleveland a few years ago, when you and a friend of yours took off during the conference and decided to visit my store (The Jewelry Studio in Little Italy.) I still remember vividly the LEGO jewelry you make :-))) Because we moved away from Cleveland, I had to close my little shop, but I now have another gallery in Pittsburgh, Luke & Eloy, which I really love !

    Anyway, back to crafthaus: Please feel free to add your comments to the blog/discussion topics that are already posted. Of course, if there is something else you'd much rather talk about, please add that to the site so that the rest of us can chime in. I am sure there are a lot of artists here who you already know professionally.

    I really hope you will enjoy being with this network and find the exchanges interesting and fun. The more you put into it, the more you will get out of it, for sure.

    If there are ever any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to email me anytime. I will do my best to be of help.

    Again: Welcome !

    Hi Emiko,
    Just want to let you know that I showed your crown jewel slides to my students when I gave a lecture about found objects. They loved them and the concept blew their minds! Cheers, MDB

    Yes I'm very excited about blogging and what not. Thanks for following. I'll be certain to capture as much as possible for those who are not attending. Maybe some flickr too. Sorry to hear you won't be there.

    Hi Emiko.  It was such a pleasure in meeting you at Snag this weekend, brief as it was.   I will be in SF next weekend and I was wondering if you had any suggestions to shows or galleries in the area that you wouldn't mind suggesting.  I'm still in limbo as I just graduated and may be moving to that area... Thank you so much!
