All this and a website? Whatta Guy !

Yes Shoppers in a bid for Internet Supremacy the Mad Craft Shoppe has expanded it's stake in the wired world and launched a website for your very own A.Shay Hahn. Many thanks to David Tern at Tern Art for having the site created in his ongoing project to secure representation for artists on their own terms. To view the site please go to http://www.artistwebspace.com/ashayhahn
and you will see the work that was exhibited at Tern Art's Gallery Window project - quite proud of the stuff, hope you enjoy it too. The website will be updated every few months, not as often as this site, so if you like add it to your bookmarks.

Upcoming in the next couple of weeks will be several new posts of more residential work that I've done and perhaps a couple of commissioned murals but you'l have to come back to see them as they are finished, recorded and posted. I will also be including a visit to the past to a mural that has been featured in an estimated 3000 photos by International Traveler's and you'll get to have a look at it when I give it a bit of a face lift, as it has faded over the years and needs some tender loving care.

Also I encourage anyone who has any questions about my work that is here or at the site or have inquiries about commissions to contact me at madcraftshoppe@hotmail.com . I have had several interesting conversations with folks who would like me to create a gift for a young newborn niece or the child of a friend but have been afraid to ask, that if the work here was sold that they have missed their chance to get a drum, that the word "commission" implies some kind of insult, or cheating, let me tell you, it does not, a commission is not a copy of a piece that was already sold, a new painting would be created for them, I like to paint drums and letters, that's why I paint them, so please my friends don't be afraid.

All the best to you and your Mothers on Mother's Day

A. Shay Hahn
