Cosmic Mugs Available Tomorrow on Kickstarter!

The time has come…Cosmic Mugs are launching on Kickstarter tomorrow at 11am CST! I’m very excited to be able to offer a HUGE body of artwork to all of you at the lowest possible prices.

The first 500 mugs will be available for Christmas delivery, but they will probably sell quickly. If you want to snag one for the Holidays, be sure to watch your email 11am tomorrow to get the link for the live Kickstarter, or have a friend snag one for you. Cheers!

Thank you to everyone who entered the live Cosmic Mug Giveaway! Next Wednesday 10/4, ten lucky winners will have an email in their inbox for a Cosmic Mug to be shipped almost anywhere in the world, totally free!

Ten Free Cosmic Mugs

These mugs are very difficult to create, but I successfully made a bit batch and can afford to give them away for just one more week. The giveaway program increases your chances of winning by referrals to friends and family who might get a kick out of getting their own entry to win a Cosmic Mug. Good luck!

In less than two weeks, I will have a HUGE batch of Cosmic Mugs available at far lower prices on Kickstarter! Watch closely for the next couple email newsletters so you can snag one before they sell out.

“This is the aspect of the art that interests me…the audience. 

…much more so than the fact that people call it art. Call it craft, I don’t care what they call it….long after I’m dead somebody will figure out what it was and how important it was. In the meantime, I get my kicks out of people seeing the work.”
