Thanks for checking out my campaign. Many of you know me as an artist that sells at markets in Utah and neighboring states or perhaps you are an old friend, acquaintance, or relative. 2024 was a bit of a rough year for me and it's carried on into 2025 unfortunately. I ended up losing a front tooth just before Christmas followed by a broken crown on my a molar which led to the discovery of several cavities that had to be dealt with. All this happened at the worst possible time as the selling season for my business had wound down. I was able to pay the first & second installment of a payment plan on credit, unfortunately I have maxed out both my credit cards all going towards this dental work and I have several more visits necessary throughout the year to make sure my needed implant will be solidly in place.
To be honest, I made this campaign a month ago, but never shared it because I thought I could find the money hustling my art or find another line of credit, both of which failed. Unfortunately, I had to move simultaneously which drained the last of my resources. Asking for help from the public is not something I have ever done, but everything has gotten so dire financially that I resolved to give this a go. Alternatively, you could simply buy some original art directly from me or purchase prints off my Etsy or website.
I'm just getting back into a few local events, and traveling to the Southwest next month for 3 Festivals so hopefully I can get through this rough patch and figure everything out as the year proceeds. A friendly smile is a big part of being an art salesman so hopefully I can get my front tooth fully restored by years end.
If you are so inclined, any help would be much appreciated. By request, I will donate one of my signed art prints to anyone who throws down $50 or more. Thank you so much, and stay blessed!
Hang in there, Ian. Brighter days are ahead. Hope you are well, brother. My daughter loves your barn owl print. Beautiful work.
For your teefers
Hey Ian, Love your art and wish I knew you were to find you these days. It's been a long time and I still remember the good old days we had on our skateboards. It's super awesome what you're doing with your art. Miss you old friend. also, teeth are the worst, I hate having teeth problems also. hope you get it sorted sooner then later Ian.
