The Wildest Call of My Career...So Far.
I can’t believe this.
I’m still in shock about what happened on Tuesday.
But First—
Votes for the Christmas Print Drop are still coming in! I’ll have the final update for you next Friday on whether it’s happening or not.
So... what happened Tuesday?
I got a call from one of my collectors. Not just any collector—my biggest collector of originals.
Super casual, he says:
“Hey man, me and Don Jr. are about to present and give your painting to President Trump in a few minutes. He wants to know what materials it’s made of.”
Wait. Hold up.
WHAT?!
I was blown away. I grabbed my phone, barely thinking, and texted back in a rush:
“Acrylic medium on hand-prepared museum-quality canvas!”
Moments later…
There it was—rolled out on the table like the Declaration of freakin’ Independence.
No way.
And then he tells me, “Trump was highly impressed. It’s going up in Mar-a-Lago.”
I’m beyond grateful for this opportunity. To have my work owned by a former President? That’s something I’ll never forget.
Quick side note:
Since painting the iconic photo of Trump’s assassination attempt, I’ve lost over 30,000 followers.
To those people, I say: farewell
But here’s the thing—
You can’t stop an artist from creating what speaks to him.
Anyway, back to the Christmas Print Drop! I’m hoping to see some new votes roll in.
Stay Blessed,
Sam
