/>EMAIL OF THE DAY (although this came in a while
back):


  - A New Beginning -

href="http://zoophagous1.homestead.com/openingreal.html">Fear No Art was the
brain child of myself
and Digger. It
started as a way for us to promote and showcase various artisits whose work we
respected and appreciated.

The idea began during a rainy night in
Philly as we drank a few Yuengling Lagers and ate pizza and garlic knots. During
our conversation, we agreed that not enough galleries promoted the work of
relatively unknown underground (is that redundant?) artists of all mediums. We
spoke of how great it would be to put on several shows and bring these people
the attention they deserve.

He died a little more than a month
later.  Those of us who were left with questions and anger at his passing
decided the best way to keep his memory alive was to put this idea into motion. 
Currently, there are 20 artists (including sequential artists, graff artists,
painters, photographers, tattoo artists, and Dj’s). We are signing more up each
day. Our main goal is to turn this project into a reality.

We are
currently working with several galleries for a show in April of 2004 and
preparing a small sampling of products for 2003 San Diego Comic Con and Wizard
World East. The procedes from the sales of these initial buttons, shirts, and
postcards will go to Rose Pratka, Digger’s fiancee and all around wonderful
woman.”
