Peter was busy signing books, taking photos with fans, and visiting with his artist friends and peers who knew they could find him at his table.




Stuart provided books and sales support for Peter's table. We were lucky to have help from our gracious and experienced colleagues: artist Mia (above) on Friday... and former SNB manager Mary (who left us to go to law school and is now a lawyer) on Saturday and Sunday..


Peter's book is featured on the new cards for SNB...
