Here’s the slide show describing

how I plan to trade up from

this R2D2 action figure to my

own BUS, RV or VAN, which will then become a ROLLING ART

GALLERY!Part one

Hi. I’m Tony.

Hi. I’m Tony.I’m an artist.

My wife, Danielle,

and I…

Us looking all dreamful and stuff

(That’s a big steel sculpture

by Richard Serra)

would love to open anART GALLERY.

UN-FOR-TU-NATE-

LY,

This is probably the kind of art gallery we could afford to open

(we ain’t got no money).Dang.

Tony and Danielle’s Art Gallery

Yikes.

Tony and Danielle’s Art Gallery

Yikes.NO, THANKS.

We could wait until we saved enough money to go into business, or

take out a BIG OL’ LOAN.

That’s not really the way we want to do this.

Waiting is just a way of saying we’ll never do it.

Sadly, we’ve seen plenty

come and go in our fair city,

and we don’t intend to

follow the same path.

What to do, what to do?!

What to do, what to do?!There are MANY talented

artists in our area, but few of us are finding any success selling our work

locally.

abroad than in our own town.

A better option is to try an Unorthodox

method of starting a small art gallery.
