The Times Union in NY Times fashion felt fit to have an
above the fold front page story tweaking NYRA. This one is about an art mural
commissioned by NYRA focusing on the last decade and featuring 100 racing
figures including the recently ousted NYRA CEO Charlie Hayward.
Renowned racing artist Pierre Bellocg known as "Peb," will
recieve $250,000 for the artwork.
Seems the focus on Charlie Hayward in the piece is a
little petty and piling on at this point. But should Emperor/Governor Cuomo
squash the deal I hereby submit my artwork with a more modest quote of $25 (or best offer).
My piece is probably more crude and simple than Peb's piece.
His took months while mine took about 3 minutes this afternoon while I was on a
conference call. I chose a simple theme featuring the same 3 NYRA figures Peb
had in his piece plus 2 horses. I was going to put in some jockeys and trainers
but I that would have took longer than 3 minutes and I wanted to keep the fee at $25.
In addition I offer framed copies of the piece to the
general public for a mere $50 plus shipping and handling fees of $9.95. If you
act now you get 2 for the price of one (plus shipping and handling of course). If
acceptable please contact me to make arrangements for payment. Paypal or cash
orders only.
