Feedback, 13 More States and the Capital

Hello everyone,

How are you? I just got back from giving away paintings in Mississippi, Arkansas and Alabama. Here are some of the painting feedback that I received:

Awesome feedback from a painting recipient in Mississippi: We found this one. My husband is going to frame it and bring it to his office at Gulf Coast Mental Health. He wants to retell the story and improve peoples lives. Hopefully it will show them that even strangers care. Suzi

A wonderful message from a Eudora, Arkansas painting recipient: Bren, the Eudora City Hall thanks you for your painting, you are to be commended for your dedication of this wonderful Smiley B project. I am employed by the City of Eudora, Mayor's worker "B". Mary

A very nice message from an Orange Beach, Alabama painting recipient: I found this one!!! I love it sooooo much! I would like to place it in our trauma room in Orange Beach along with a little write up about Bren and Smiley B. I know it will help take away the anxiety and pain which our patients sometime unfortunately experience. What a wonderful gift, thank you, Gina

D.C. and New Characters

I had a super busy 4th of July weekend. I painted close to 200 paintings for my big cross country free painting giveaway trip. They are all new characters and I will now give paintings in D.C. as well (315 free paintings for my Kickstarter project). Originally, it was only going to be 300. I also had some time to just relax and read between all of that painting :)

AR, MS, AL and Possibly OK

Just got back from an awesome Midwestern trip! I gave away 60 paintings in 4 states (ND, SD, IA and MN) in 4 days! Next stop, AR, MS, AL and possibly... OK as well.

Below is an updated map, the green states are the ones where paintings have been given away. 16 more states to go. And here's a photo of me last weekend at the Franconia Sculpture Park in Minnesota.
