Blown away by this

[Ford2112]

So I have a friend who is an artist . He has a gallery in Carmel California. He's a talented guy. Anyway we were having a cigar one evening down on the waterfront and he took some pictures of me. Unbeknownst to me he painted my picture. I am deeply flattered. He posted this on IG this morning . Took me by total surprise.

That's very cool.  Art talent is amazing to me since I have none.

The question is, do you get a cut of the profits when he sells it?

Lol no.  I am buying the original. Evidently his new business model is to paint pictures of his buddies and talk them into buying the piece 🥴. I am.not the first!
