Hey guys, thank you SO much for all of your kind words. It really means a lot to me that you'd take time from your day to try and assuage my fears. Lord knows I need it.
Sean, regarding the hint, well, I definitely can't give an obvious one. But let's just say that the collector has a lot of influence outside of the hobby.
Andrew, if I can make a Mets hater actually like that painting, then I think I might have done something right! YES!!
Scott, thank you - and man, do I hope you're right!
Pete, thank you as well. I think the Matty was the start of something really special. I still can't take credit for it though - it's all Conlon!!
Jacksons, your words mean a great deal, really. I just wish you would be there that night to convince me to not worry!
Mark, you're the man. And, you're hired. Does this mean I'll have to do a painting of Tony Perez every year? Or maybe everyone from the BRM? They're definitely worse things!!
David, thank you so much for that sentiment. I wish I could even wash that man's brushes. Or, wear one of his amazing hats.
Again, you fellas are wonderful - thank you. I'll be sure to keep y'all updated with the results...and some more paintings!
Weeee!!
