      <![CDATA[Ah, Darryl.  I drove a delivery truck downtown for several years.  The first time I met Darryl, I gave him some change for "paints for an artist."  In a few months, I started to buy some of his paintings to help him out and because I sort of liked his work.  Then I began to REALLY like his work and bought more.  (It drove my wife crazy...I didn't tell her many I had in the garage!)  After a remodel of my kitchen, I took him some solid oak cabinet doors, a few at a time.  Of course I had to buy some back after he painted them. <br>
The names he gave his works made them more personal, too.  I tried to write those names on the back, right where he signed his name and date.

      <![CDATA[I met Darryl when I lived in Seattle back around 2000.  I had walked by and looked at his art for nearly a year on the Ave and always said hi to him.  He was a real treat to encounter.  One day I stopped to look at his work and decided to buy a piece, he looked at me and said, "you've been coming around here about a year now right?"  It was days from the 1yr anniversary of me moving to  Seattle.   I knew then, I was not just dealing with a nice man, but a top notch mind.  We went on to have many conversations, he is a truly wonderful person.  Now that I live in Michigan, I have a piece of his work on my desk and think of him often.

      <![CDATA[I once interviewed Darryl at the Turf downtown.  It was interesting, both being at the Turf and talking to Darryl.  I own about ten of his paintings, small and large.  I wish that all of us who support him could gather together the money to get him proper medical and dental care; even though he's bright, it's apparent that he suffers.  I respect him and his art because he creates something every day and he's out there doing the hustle.  He's a hero to me.

      <![CDATA[One time i was talking to this guy and i asked him, how do you visualize this stuff, and he said that he came from a rich family, and he left it all behind, but then he had some problems, which by changing the subject, i figured he didn't want to talk about, but basically, he taps into his REM sleep while awake, and bam, this is what you get. An explanation beyond this, i could not get, unfortunately.

      <![CDATA[I thought he was all ready selling on the street? Come on this could be like all the times of discovery by those who care. Like there goes the neighboorhood when the art curators, galleries, move in on the artist and a loft becomes a real estate term. I don't think that you get what I mean about chewing and spitting that the art world does so well. A very long spoon in all these cases is the wise road to go. Going slick isn't. Telling artists to paint, paint, paint for a show isn't. Ah who cares I am way on the east coast and you folks can arty all you wanty.

      <![CDATA[rv—no one is chewing and spitting. Amelia is a fan of Darryl's work who happens to book the art that hangs at Solo. That is her connection to the "art world." She asked him if he wanted to show his stuff and he happily accepted. This will give him a chance to sell some pieces at the show and hopefully turn some more people on to his work so that he might make a few more sales down the line. Thats all she wants, thats all he wants. Starving as an artist isn't as romantic as it sounds. <br />
<br />
Duglas—I don't know about naive and folk-art, but I own a handful of Darryl's paintings and they are some of the most beautiful things in my world.
