IF IT DOESN'T SELL IN 7 DAYS IT GETS DESTROYED- AND YOU CAN WATCH!

Mick
This relatively quick study was done over Cheese Flambe in a dark restaurant whose name escapes me. Those who have seen it so far say thatMick looks like someone important. I believe that to be true. I hope he will be saved.
You did a swell job here, Rob. I must call my mommy, she might have $20. By the way, the name of the restaurant is The French Kiss. Thanks again for the wine ... lucky for us that you finished before I fell off the bar stool!
Funny, I thought it might be Mick! Don't destroy it. Don't destroy any of them. That's a bit extreme, don't you think? Keep them and show/sell them as a collection one day. or if you don't want to do that, then give them to the models. They'd be delighted to have something by you!!
My name is Robert D'Agostino and I am an artist. I'm conducting an experiment called "Save My Studies". It asks the question- "Will people buy my work in order to stop it's destruction? Will anyone Save My Studies?" HOW IT WORKS- When a study is complete and ready for sale, I put it up for auction on eBay for 7 days. At that time, if the minimum bid isn't met I will destroy the work, film the tragic ritual and post the video for all to see. HOW IT'S PRICED- It's based on a wage of $10 pr/hr. I keep track of the hours spent on the study and multiply that by $10. COME ALONG- I invite you to follow this experiment, I invite you to watch the inevitable destruction and, of course, I invite you to become a collector of my work and "SAVE MY STUDIES"

Mick, I like this study a lot and may have to out bid your mom.
I think this is great work! And the other painting too. And Mick really looks important - and are too :)
I'll be waiting more works for you, Robert!
Thanks Elegia for your comment.
The sparsity of this study is very appealing. I like your quality of your lines. Great to see your work!
