The guy wrote to me and pretended to be a representitve of the magazine Reader's Digest. He said he was doing a modern office, and living room photo shoot in NY and wanted to add one of my mobiles. With the photos, he was going to promote RD's new magazine Fresh Home. He promised it would be lots of great advertising for my work. He sent me a pdf of the new magazine promo layout, and it looked offical. And I think I stated it very clearly. Not stressed what so ever. Sad yes. I think being an artist struggling like most to make ends meet, there are people out there that want to kick you and put you down. Artists are as close to the ground as you can go! "How low can you go, death row, what a brother know, but since I know a little somethin' that I know you lack, still some consider me a new
jack!" I think that's how that went! from Public Enemy. You'd
think of all the people to steal from, an artist would not be my first
choice!! It's like kicking a bum, pushing an old guy, slapping a baby!!
How low can you go. Artists ... are a little weird but need to be supported for being weird. Otherwise we wouldn't exist.

These sentences don't make sense. Was the art stolen FOR a photo shoot? or was the art made for the photo shoot, then stolen? What did you find out a week after making the art? I know you were probably stressed when typing this blog, but it doesn't make much sense. Good luck in finding the art.

Quite a few people were scammed by this man. Apparently he was caught and arrested on April 2nd, and then released on bail. Some people got their art pieces back. Hopefully yours will be found.
