Eyes wide open...

I'm pretty sure the Johnny Depp's "The People's Artist" contest is a bit of a scam. 😅

It's DATA FARMING artists and their "voters".

Be careful out there my beautiful friends.
Scammers are everywhere.

You art is a LIFELINE.

KEEP CREATING

In November 2019, Jerome was loading his unsold paintings into his car to take to the dumpster.

14 years of work. 200+ canvases. No gallery representation. No buyers.

"I'm done," he told his wife. "I'm getting a real job."

His wife took one painting out of the car and propped it in the window of their Brooklyn apartment.

A gallery owner walking by stopped. Knocked on their door.

6 months later, Sotheby's New York sold Jerome's painting "Harbor House at 4 AM" for $2.4 million.

He now has a waiting list of 2 years for commissions.

The painting that almost went in the trash hangs in a private collection in Tokyo.

"My wife saved the one canvas that changed everything. She saw it when I couldn't." 🎨💰🇺🇸

You know that I was not going to broadcast at all about how difficult this construction has been for Fresh Gallery .

It makes me feel vulnerable and exposed.

Like someone is snickering about the situation and that doesn't feel good.

My friend suggested that I allow our audience to help us get through to the end by creating this:

At first I said- NO WAY!!!
Then a few more set backs later, I had to start to reconsider.

Now, the page itself has not raised much cash in the way of financially stability, HOWEVER...

It has brought attention to the gallery and the public about how the construction is impacting us and others.

Several folks made a special trip over here this week to let us know that they support the mission we are on and are encouraging people to visit the gallery.

We are so very thankful for your energetic support.

Keeping art spaces open and high functioning should be a priority for us all.

Ways that you can support us even more is to * like, comment, and share* this post and help us with post circulation.
