In any case, I've absolutely felt defensive in regards to some of your responses. Maybe that just a personal problem. I'll work on that. And I recognize the merit in others.
I find it interesting that the response on this site has been the complete opposite from that on expressobeans. I'm sure we could speculate as to what those reasons are but I'm not really interested.
This project is simply a gesture and a gift to both an artist I appreciate and a friend. I have enjoyed the full extent of organizing it. And I hope that the community of folks who have chosen to participate will stay connected in some way over time.
I have been humbled by the overwhelming response in 24 hours and can happily say that we need less than 10 folks to complete the gesture. So I want to offer a huge thanks to all you folks who donated to the cause.

Now personally if it was for Kate Upton you might have got my attention. send me 50quid please, i'll buy her a smaller bikini

That may just be in the cards. I have actually communicated with Phlegm to do this exact thing. I wanted to pay for him to come to my area and have him paint some stuff since I know that is what he likes doing. I just do not quite have the money together yet.
I also thought if other members here or on ebeans who live on the west coast US could find some places for him to paint in their areas and help coordinate his visit (Maybe So. Cal, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle) it may make it worth his while to come over here.

I am skint so spending my 50 bucks to buy bread and milk.

On the other hand, if I offended anyone, I apologize. I'm quick to speak and less to think on occasion. I got a bit hot and may have been a bit too aggressive. My apologies.

I'm sure he'd love to get out and about more worldwide and this idea would be great for him, his stateside profile and the art community he goes to; everyone's a winner
