Hot off the press
the new full-color Art Of A Shaman by Frank Moore!

After ten years of work, yesterday we put out a glossy covered 98 page paperback edition of my Art of a Shaman, as well as a downloadable version. Both are available from Lulu.com. [Order info is below!] We are blown out at how absolutely glorious and beautiful the actual book, designed by Mikee, is! It is full of amazing performance photos and my paintings in full lush warm juicy colors. It captures the feeling of being at the performances! All in the size of a graphic novel. BUT DON'T BUY IT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO FEEL GOOD AND GET TURNED ON!
