With my publisher, Rolf Maurer, from New Star Books who introduced the evening. Gerry Meyers was the photographer of the works displayed that night at Sugar and Sugar. They were images from Asia and were a perfect setting for the launch. My cousins Leilani and Janey! Mom, Dad and I

At the grand piano that I played on, here is a Brazilian artist who walked off the street, chatted to my mom for a long time and ended up playing piano in time with the music. Strange but true. Nadine Pedersen, publicist from Harbour, who helped me so much with the launches (and promoting Slant!), me, and Anthea Whittaker. Walter in a party shirt and Michael and Kevin in stylish white and black! Hi guys.. Ah, the launch over, able to relax. With Thomas - who supported me all the way through the launch. Thank you BNBH.
