		Melissa Kojima over 2 years Ed, I think you're an over achiever, but I still like you (wink, wink. read with wit and sarcasm). Really, your work is amazing and I'm happy to have connected with you. May this be the beginning of a beautiful realtionship (read like Bogart at the end of Casablanca). Take care.
		Ed Hall over 3 years Thanks. It was definitely a "release" of sorts. I had a pretty rough 2008, and I used this project to let a lot of it go. Very cathartic. It's good that people are seeing that. Cheers, Ed

		Kimberly Landers over 3 years Hey Ed! Likewise, thanks for the compliment. I really like your digital sketches, what program did you use. I'm fairly proficient at Photoshop and I'm taking an illustrator class... but that looks like something different. Corel Draw?
