Hi folks! As many of you may have heard already, I have relocated to Portland. That means bigger studio and better performance! I have tons of stuff already lined up for this year, and it's going to be a very exciting one. I am beginning my pieces for the Resin Collective show at Red Hot Robot in April, as well as working on a new version of the Kristopher toy. I've also got a few more toys in the works that should see the light of day very soon. I will need a few weeks to get settled and in the swing of things, but expect big things in the very near future!

Love,
Jon Knox
