Message from the publisher!

I can't believe that this year is almost up and we are celebrating our 1 year anniversary at the Eye of the Eagle. Things will probably be a little quiet for the rest of the year as we gear up for the new year. But stop by and see what we are doing and visit the World's Largest Tiny Art Show.
