Funny how the thread(s) didn't go up until it sold out.

They didn't announce it early, they never do, and when it was fresh I don't think anyone's first priority was EB.

You can check your order status on their website. Mine is "Awaiting shipment".

The fact that it was going to be a Soto print was also announced via blogz as early as Sunday.

"Believe thine eyes.

It is with the greatest pleasure we announce the event of the week: this evening, as the sun sets in my zone and rises in yours, we welcome Jeff Soto for his first TS appearance.

Holy smokes, you must be thinking, hold the phone, doth mine eyes deceive me? Certainly they doth not.

"Through striking visual imagery, Jeff Soto communicates profound visions and fears, nostalgia of his youth, and themes of love, lust, and hope. Soto's distinct color palette, subject matter, technique and bold themes resonate with a growing audience. Inspired by childhood toys, the colorful lifestyle of skateboarding and graffiti, hip-hop and popular culture, Soto's representational work is simultaneously accessible and stimulating."

For more and for the visuals to back it up, please visit Jeff's site: http://www.jeffsoto.com

For even more, like tangible for real more, visit Tiny Showcase at 7:30pm EDT: http://www.tinyshowcase.com

With the utmost,
