Have You Heard? I'm an Artist Now

Our very first Shmitten Kitten art show was last night and it went off without a hitch. I have to say, it was a thrill to meet our loyal readers and to finally put faces to names. Our fans are the best, sweetest, and raddest people ever!

My parents even came out and I think that my Mom was pretty blown away by the overwhelmingly positive reception we received. She said that she wants posters of all the dudes that I've drawn and I was like, "Why?" And she said that she just had to have them. Sure, Mom, I'll hook you up. Maybe next time I go to my parents' house, I'll see my drawings of shitty dudes I've dated framed on the living room wall. Cool.

All of our friends came out and it felt amazing to look around and see their beautiful faces drinking our cheap beers. I wanted to take pictures during the event, but I was so busy schmoozing that I totally forgot to do it.

I'd like to give a shout out to the ladies at Conspiracy, who were top notch and a complete delight to work with. We couldn't have asked for a more friendly, welcoming, hospitable team. A huge thank you goes out to them for hosting the party.

The response to our art work has been fantastic. Our drawings will be up in their store for the next month so feel free to pop in and check it out. We still have a few posters left for sale. And, with the money we make from selling the posters, we are hoping to print up some T-shirts in the coming weeks. Exciting!

In other news, our little write-up in the City Paper came out yesterday. I'm really thrilled with it:

And, Philly's Daily Candy gave us some love too. How awesome is that?

So, yeah, it's been a whirlwind in Anna-land. I love it!
