It sounds like you had a really interesting conversation, and I'm glad you got to see his artwork in person. It's always fascinating to meet people who have such unique perspectives on the world, and I'm sure you learned a lot from your conversation with him.

I'm also intrigued by his artwork. The prices are certainly steep, but I can see why they are. The detail and shading in his paintings are incredible, and I can imagine that they would be even more impressive in person.
