It's the type of thing that makes someone's day if they come across it.
You know what's really wonderful about it, too? The other thing I like about that kind of art, is it's free. I've talked to my daughter and other people about this a lot, she's an artist. And we talk about how now the way our society and our economy are becoming the artists have to start giving things away if they're gonna be noticed. If you go in there with an economic interest, people shut off immediately, we're just trained to do it just like we don't hear commercials or see banner ads. If you go out and just create something and give it to the world, they want to know who you are and they want more of it. I'm not saying use this as a marketing tool, I'm saying you do it because if you're an artist you love people and you love to create and you love to see the joy on their faces when they have in their hands or in front of them what you've created. It's almost like we're going back to that kind of purity.
I felt a little bad about the Lionel poster because I didn't really mean to put people on this guy's trail, or unveil his project before it was ready, which is what it amounted to. I think he was probably planning something bigger, more posters in more places, but that was all preempted by little old me.
Well, if he was trying to reach more people, you helped him accomplish that.
I'm not sure if he was consoling himself or trying to make me feel better or what, but he said the same thing.
