I am LiberalLoner on Twitter too if you want to see or you can go to his Twitter feed to see.

I am shocked and thrilled! I can’t stop smiling!

Just wanted to share with you guys because you guys understand how much a kind gesture of encouragement can mean when you are trying to become an artist.

17. that's exciting!

i remember when mike malloy crashed my button website. so fun.

also, i did an art auction once and one of the bidders for my painting was a creative director for pixar.
my eyesight was just starting to go, so when he handed me his card, i didnt notice that the x in pixar was actually woody.
facepalm the next morning when i put my glasses on.
i was super sorry he lost. sorta didnt like the winners.
not that they werent as nice as could be, but the choice was the foyer of a mcmansion, or a slick city condo.

[LiberalLoner]

18. How cool!!! 😍

[LiberalLoner]

19. P.S. I'd be happy if any of my paintings had a home besides my garbage can, at this point. Maybe

Someday.

22. right there w you on that.

i did this thing 3 times. it was called 'barewalls'. saic alums came and painted onsite.
after that 1st yr, 2nd, my painting didnt sell, and hangs in some office in alumni affairs. 3rd year i bought my own painting, and it's rolled up in my closet.

i gave a few away, but actually got turned down by my own sister.

i'm paying $175/mo to keep the shit away from the mice.

there are a few more clay pieces out there, but most were swaps.

ftr, facebook.com/mo-clay has a lot of my work.

[LiberalLoner]

23. I'm sorry. I hope sales pick up for you! ❤️

[mopinko]

25. not pursuing it any more.

happy being a farmer, rescuing old buildings, and occasional being a political hack.

[LiberalLoner]

26. I understand. 👍❤️
