Some of this:

I thought you might enjoy reading the polite rejection I got from Magic Pony:

Steve and Kristin,

Hello, My name is Matthew Pazzol. I lived and worked in Toronto
during 2004 and fondly remember my visits to your old space. Your
passion for your trade was always obvious.

I think my newest work portrays the "sense of humour, innate style and
creativity" that you are dedicated to. I have included a link below.

Please let me know if there is any way we can be of service to each other.

Thank you,

Matthew Pazzol




Hi Matthew,

Thanks for your e-mail. That's cool that you used to come into Magic Pony. That must have been in the upstairs space. Very good memories of that spot!!

Thanks for sending us a link to your work. Really awesome! We are totally booked for shows this year but if we have something coming up in the future that we think your work would fit well with we will definitely let you know.

Best Regards,
Kristin
