this man is a GENIUS! painted it upside down !!! AND beyond TALENTED !!!!!!!

[@cobaltpica]

manee blaze its not upside down.. thats a camera trick

+TheSlimification1 There doesnt exist anything as photographic memory :)

[@TheSlimification1]

MultiPureskill Actually there is such a thing.. thats how i got through school.. After reading anything once i could recite it word for word as if the book was in my head.

[@MultiPureskill]

Yes you can remember it for a small amount of time, but ''Photographic memory'' was denied to exist by scientists. You can rember stuff for small period of time, or learn it like a song. That helps you and you will rember it because you have the ''Feeling'' that it has to be like that. But nothing less. :) :D

[@TheSlimification1]

lol ok i guess your right ;P

nice job!! 200 bucks for 5 min work? I'd take that anyday.

[@bigpharmarules]

And 15 years of preparation :)

[@ThePepe969]

But this is straight talent... Only some artists can actually do things like these, this is really impressive

[@tmthylthm]

Canvas is expensive, especially black canvas. He probably lost a ton of money doing that, actually.

[@BlutigerFuchs]

+Timothy Latham It depends on the canvas' size, that particular black one might be pricey.

[@melissa8313]

my thoughts exactly! he's talented, it's a smart business move when you need cash, why not!!

[@JoeCambo]

Amazing! I wanna see what this guy can do without a time restriction

[@trevor5664]

Joe Cambo that asome

[@professionallylay703]

No, the time restriction is what gives his craft shape...or whatever.

[@ginosantia2667]

He's currently doing two videos a week on Facebook should you follow him there.

[@kweenzwalters3916]

​@@ginosantia2667 what's his Facebook name?

[@Beyonder555]

This guy could turn his talent into a fortune! Imagine if he got a setup at a busy amusement park... He'd be $600/hr at 6 paintings an hour for $100 each.

[@shibuyasnobody9279]

Beyonder555 Not quite...

[@Beyonder555]

hany259 Who said anything about 1.2 mil a year? He'd be working only on weekends when amusement parks are packed.. And then, spend the rest of the week doing other stuff. But, good luck trying to get a setup at an amusement park..

[@hany259]

Guess so they're trying to make their own money anyways.

[@shibuyasnobody9279]

Beyonder555 I don't think you understand how much those canvases actually costs and i'm pretty sure there's only a few people who would actually pay 100$ for that

[@Niko-bf7nw]

you need to find people willing to pay a 100 every 10 minutes aswell.

[@kacejones3044]

It was worth more than $100 bucks. That was a slap in the face cause that guy is talented.

[@jeffw1267]

That's a pretty cool talent but there are a million starving artists who are just as good.

[@braydenmg600]

Kace Jones no not to les bc what’s he gonna do with it it may mean a lt to the guy but not les

[@Alan-reee]

Kace Jones did you watch the damn video? He got 200 hundred for it. I'll take $200 for 10 minutes of work any day.

[@simpsonsstickers]

Problem is people wouldn’t walk in to a pawnshop and spend money on that. There are a lot of speed painters out there that do better work then him on the Vegas strip for 10-20

[@sportagus3]

He only spent 10 minutes on it and ended up getting 200 dollars. That's 1.2k an hour. 200 dollars was a great price.

[@spikesification]

That blank canvas would be worth at least 50-80 bucks

[@UrSammich]

+spikesification Really? A plain black canvas for that much? I mean I know the plain white ones vary per size. He could have painted it all black for starters, let it dry and then paint on top, but I really doubt it. :/ Though I know smaller canvases like 9X12 and or 8X10 can range from 8-10. :/

[@proudricefarmer4700]

Try 16.

[@Anonymous-eo2er]

spikesification is right. These canvas can end up costing a lot. For that size and color especially. Even painting a white canvas black would take time and money and wouldn’t give you amazing results

Talk about being on the spot, and he delivered! This guy shouldn't be going to pawn shops with that kind of talent. I'm an exceptional artist and I'm very impressed. And he did it upside down in less than 10 minutes.., are you kidding me! I've seen other artists do paintings upside down, which came out alright, but it took them a lot longer than 10 minutes. This is a great painting! It looks just like Les. Les should have given him more than 200 dollars. This artist needs to get in touch with the right people, the right connections. He can do a lot for himself and for the art world.
