so, i met my old recruiter at work... well, last night it was... now it's morning ... anyway. and you know what he said? he said i need to get out of this place (walmart)! and he's right! so, for the mere price of $10,000 US dollars (which is cheap considering i'd need to live on that long enough for my next sell, plus it'd probaby take me about 3 months to make one... so... there ya go), you may have my services to paint just about any subject matter you'd want painted. i will paint it MY way. otherwise there's no point in hiring me as at that point i'd no longer be an artist. but i will put all my effort into it. paintings come in a size of 5 feet square (unless you want something else, then this whole deal changes, price and all), and i don't like going less than 5 feet as i need some room to breathe, and all shipping is paid for by the buyer. payment is negotiable, but i'd prefer $2000 a month for 5 months. if you do seriously take up this offer, then be assured i will make this the best you've ever bought and i will do my best to make it worth both our whiles. daily updates will also be provided should you commission me. (proper spelling is not included)

and i should also note that a painting from me may very well be worth more than the money you bought it with in the not too distant future (if you're in the US anyway... you know, with all the money printing and what not).

That painting I bought from you is still hanging in my toilet but has started to "ripple"..... I think the paper you painted it on was pretty poor quality..... it's certainly no picasso my friend and I doubt I'd get a quid for it at a local car boot sale. To me it means something (ie: $70 wasted) but to someone else it may mean something else..... most people who have used my toilet have commented "what kid painted that, one of your nephews?"....... I always say "NO! it's a Merton original".... they're none the wiser ;D

i told you when you bought that stupid thing that it was on a sheet of paper glued to some poster board. i even took pics of the blasted wrinkles and whatnot and sent them to you and said, shit, here's some wrinkles and crap, do you still want it? and you still said yes. don't blame that on me you old fart! and besides, i'm doing oil paintings now. this is straight windsor and newton oil paint (i don't like using stuff like liquin and all that), on 14 oz cotton duck canvas that's been primed twice with rabbit skin glue. the first layer having been sanded. the frames are made out of 2x4's (if people were buying them i'd use better wood. i really rather like the 2x4's though and need to find some cabinet quality ones) and are very sturdy. anyway................ and could you send me some pics of that drawing thing you bought from me? i could really use them. if you want that thing redone in oil paint on canvas i'll do it for $550 (the $50 is for some cabinet quality wood) plus professional shipping (not the crappy stuff).... i'll need pics of it though. it'll be about 3 feet square.
