First, for those who are able to make it, I'll be taking part in the Arts and Crafts Fair at Fenwick and West in Mountain View this coming Friday, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
I'll have framed prints, matted prints, unframed prints, and portfolios to look at. I'd be happy just to have people show up, but I can also take orders for prints (plain, mounted, or mounted and framed), and cards. I'll have samples of three of the calendars.
For anyone interested in taking a knife skills class from/with me, I'll be teaching on in Palo Alto on the 27th (the Sunday after Christmas). The class starts at noon. As an incentive, you get a 15 percent discount in the store, that day, and a 10 percent discount for the week thereafter; on everything except electronics.
If you want, I'll be glad to let you fondle the knives in the display case afterwards.
The class is hands on, and (though it seems hard to credit) comes with snacks (cheese plate and wine before; chips and (very) freshly made salsa afterwards. It's $59, and will last 1 1/2 to two hours. I'll cover care and feeding of your knives, proper grip (of knife and food), and how to work vegetables (some of which applies to meats too), so you can have curried veggies, not curried fingertips.
If you can't make it to that one, I expect to be teaching another one on the 24th of January.
