Jackie and Eric greeted me and invited me to take a look at the pieces.  I haven\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t been around in a while, so it was nice that they still recognized me.  There were some interesting works, notably Kris Higa\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s cute yet disturbing comic art piece, Kandi Everett\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s wonderful watercolor, and Maile Yawata\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s ceramic pieces.  Otto had a framed 3D multimedia piece, and Hal Lum had a smaller, dark work set in a deep frame \u00e2\u20ac\u201c a lot different than the pieces he had shown at the downtown TCMHI gallery last year.  My cousin John Koga was present with a gilded plaster piece, and a framed, fleshtoned foray into the booby theme that has haunted some of his past works.  There were some interesting ink-line on painted background pieces toward the back right of the shop, but I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t recall who did them.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>It was a little early when I got there, so only a few people were there.  One of the everpresent Fighting Eel girls was there with a friend, and a dude who I sold a VooDoo MTB to back in the McBike days.  Kandi also arrived early, and I got to talk to her a little before I had to take off.<\/p>\n<p>Check it out \u00e2\u20ac\u201c the show runs from yesterday (04 June 2008) thru the 28th.
