I used to be a pretty famous ASCII artist. Actually made money from it. I made enough money to cover all of my art school education and every art supply I'd ever bought. Which means I'm a successful artist.

My ex had my old phone number. I got a message from her to check her voicemail. And then I got a message that she hated me. The voicemail was offering me a job as an ASCII artist. She hated me because I always seem to make money off of the absolute dumbest hobbies. I respected her for saying that.

Than she can rest knowing that maybe long after she is dead, billionaires will trade in her paintings and hoard them in tax free zones at airports as ways to hide their money from the IRS.

Is this true? Because he didn't deal with selling his paintings, that was his brother Theo's job (an art dealer). The arrangement they had was Theo would finance Vincents art life while Vincent would send him all his art. They were both very happy to do this arrangement and frequently wrote to eachother often. In fact the main reason van Gogh is so famous is because of all these letters which allowed us to learn about Vincents life and tragic end.

Out of all the painters in this tweet, van Gogh was the second most successful. That's gotta count for something.

Have you also cut off one of your ears for each painting sold?

van gogh sold hundreds of paintings in his lifetime.

if you dont believe me, see this QI clip that confirms it.

A surprisingly apt song for this exact thought about Van Gogh's success.

Why did she only capitalize a single "I"? Like it's litterally the only capital letter. Also she didn't capitalize the other "i". Why didn't she just leave them all lowercase? I need to know this.
