I've tryed art selling with a bit of success. I live and work from my RV. I've been homeless for a decade now.
It's to bad being famous doesn't necessarily mean you'll be rich. I've been writing my experiences in Minnesota for 6 years now... maybe a bit more.. sometimes begging for help, but I never get out of the poverty pit.
I'm always afraid of getting pulled over and my "home" impounded beyond my ability to get it back.
I don't have tabs/registration ($40) the reason I would be pulled over.
It's pretty frustrating when you can't pay for simple things to get your life in order. Even more so when you can't buy food!

I'd drive off with nowhere to park and get caught trying to sleep in a parking lot somewhere with no tabs and this sh*t is just a nightmare. I don't even have gas money. I just want to get my head above water so I can focus on entrepreneurial ideas and get back to doing art projects I was involved in.

I can offer art for money. I have a signature piece that is funny, I'll try to ebay in the near future.

For now, I've figured out how to accept paypal donations! Click the orange button above.

THANKS FOR READING!
Peace on the planet.

I'm trying to sell art to raise food funds! I'm homeless. I've lived in my RV/Studio for 10 years.
I have a Pop Art Formula of cat faced celebrities, done in marker on magazine, finished in found frames.

I've been shown in some very prestigious places despite my living situation. I THANK YOU for your support.

***EDIT 2011***

No one ever showed much intrest in helping me. I don't do those pop art cat faces anymore. I just take thousands of photographs and make youtube videos now..

My RV recently had a fire and had to be towed away.. so now I bike around and live in a storage shed. It's getting cold again as usual..
