Meg, You know there are lots of people that need original art. There are collectors out there that will pay top dollar just to get you started. Sometimes you just have to find the right one, it could be a person in finance, business owner. They most likely would like to see your pictures. Who knows, you may get a mural for their business in the hallway or as a backdrop. I had a friend that lived up in New Jersey, that was getting paid $35,000 to do a watercolor. His technique was amazing. He was one of the best I have seen. I love you and hope your artwork is skyrocketing enjoy. Love Dad sent Feb 3rd,
Hi Meggles, So when I went to the Metropolitan Museum in New York the only thing I could think of was you and Elli. They had unbelievable drawings from Renoir, Picasso, Monet, and so many other fantastic artist that you only see in magazines. I kid you not after about three and a half hours and my head hurt. The brush Strokes, The Impressions, the imagination so breathtaking. You can stare at one painting for 30 minutes and not be bored I know your education will take you to places that I could never dream of, and the influence you're going to have when dissecting artwork will be like a seed blossoming into an amazing rose. I'm so impressed. Much much love Dad |
Happy Valentines day 2018

Hi Meg, Sometimes I loose my energy. My hope seems to have faded and the world is not bright without you. I wanted to let you know I am sorry. This is the hardest letter I've ever had to write in my life. I've obviously done something so wrong that you have cut me off from all communication. Not a day goes by, that I don't think about you and pray to God that I hope you are doing well. I wish there was some way to communicate. I don't know what I have done to cause this to happen. Not in my wildest nightmares did I ever think that someway somehow we would have become disconnected. It may have been something I said, or something I had done. If my apology wasn't sincere enough before with Alex Kirk I hope this one will work. I am sorry for not listening. I am sorry for not asking you about your feelings. I'm sorry for being a bad soccer coach. I'm sorry for being too hard when I was your soccer coach. I'm sorry for not being hard enough when I was your soccer coach. I'm sorry for raising my voice.

I'm sorry for not listening hard enough. I'm sorry for making my stories at night too scary. ie: giant Hairy donut. I'm sorry for taking you down to Disney World(Twice). I'm sorry for telling you what to do after a soccer game. I'm sorry for drinking water in the car. I'm sorry for strategy (the game). I'm sorry for playing the way I played basketball. I'm sorry for reading Green Eggs and Ham ten thousand times. I'm sorry for not being there as much as I should have. I'm sorry for being there too much. I'm sorry for working all the time. I'm sorry for not working enough. I'm sorry for having to drive you to school. I'm sorry for taking you to Cape Cod. I'm sorry for trying to be something that I'm not. I'm sorry for the way you feel. I'm sorry for not being there for you. I'm sorry for not understanding. I'm sorry for making you play with the older people in the older pick up games. I'm sorry for not saying I love you enough. I'm sorry for not protecting you. I'm sorry for being too fat. I'm sorry for eating too much. I'm sorry for not giving you what you wanted. I'm sorry I wasn't there to help you drive. I'm sorry for going to jail. I'm sorry I was not there for your high school graduation. I'm sorry for talking on the sidelines when you played soccer. I am sorry for your pain. Please forgive me love Dad Sent March9th 2017
Hi Meg, Have you used metal sculptures yet. They are sometimes amazing. I especially like the ones of the balloon dogs. I loved the colors he used and the feeling of nostalgia. I still love the thought process of how. How does that artist come up with that idea? Was he just sitting one day and said BALLOON DOGS. Yeah, that will make a super metal sculpture. I hope you are doing wonderful. Love dad |

Hi Meggles, Happy Birthday, College life is a new adventure for you, how exciting! I am sure you are making a lot of new friends and enjoying your campus and school. I see it is a smaller more focused campus. I can imagine this makes it easier to jump right into the subjects you love and make friends easily. I know you gotta be loving it. Your college experience will provide some of the best time of your life. I am sure that college is more challenging then high school. I am thrilled you are in an environment where the teachers have new mediums and ideas, bring forth an explosion of knowledge in the things you love doing. I have heard the food is way more awesome then it was when I was in college. I still gained the freshman 15. JI looked up the town you are living in and it seems to provide a great art scene, that has to be exciting. I see there was no soccer at your college, however there are some club leagues. I Checked around for museums that are around your area and I see there are several art museums. Here is a link to a cool museum http://ncartmuseum.org/?gclid=Cj0KEQiAsf_BBRDMpoOHw4aSq4QBEiQAPm7DLxW3T4LdgBTLFNTL0cD4BYeMn3cP4H8S0yNccput370aAih78P8HAQ http://www.artsinwayne.org/onetoday?keyword=north%20carolina%20museum%20of%20art&matchtype=e&ifmobile=&ifsearch=[search]&placement=&target=&gclid=Cj0KEQiAsf_BBRDMpoOHw4aSq4QBEiQAPm7DL1gAM1zi7EXDp0rFJhsoPrO9Ye0sVMpfZyt3utxhvPMaAoQd8P8HAQ You can make it day trip especially at the art museums. I am sure you will have a fantastic time looking at and understanding all of the great artists. They may give you some ideas too. If art is your major, saw that the art course for the art major looks wonderful and interesting. I know whatever ever major you choose and classes you take you will make the best out of all of them. I hope you have a great day and super time at school. Happy Birthday. I love you Dad. |
