How’s My Dealing? 2.0
Likewise I received an invitation from Roy Ockers of Banditto GAllery, to their artist residency in Tuscany.

After they created an initial web page for me I had no responses to any other contact and they would not make any canes to y webpage.

read moreI was friends with Inigo for a couple of years, around 2008/2010, until I was in London. He was one of those friends/acquaintances that you see once in a while and have cool conversations with. I was an arts student at the time, and was having a lot of trouble at my conservative school, and he helped me, read the letters from the school, and gave me some of the best advice I had received on it.
