Description

From the Journal of Stoner Hollywood, California . “5 years ago, I did something really, really stupid… You see, back in 2019, I was living the high-life as an up-and-coming artist in the Los Angeles Art District. Every week I was booked to display my art at the most glamorous galleries in LA & Hollywood. Not only that, but my art, when printed on my signature large Metal Canvases, could easily fetch $1000 at these shows. Hell, I even had a Platinum Disneyland Annual Pass! But, let me tell you a secret… You cannot reach that level of “success” in Los Angeles, without attracting the eyes of… “Them”. They usually show up as “agents“ who claim to “simply want to boost your career“. If that doesn’t work, then it will be directors and owners of galleries after you. And if that doesn’t work, then it will be celebrities themselves baiting you, all with the same agenda: To get you to join “The Club“, so that you can be a public image and voice of “The Club”. But, it’s not money that they want to make from you… It’s influence. Think about this: I was 28,in a wheelchair with a visible “inspirational” disability, with 10+ years of experience in public speaking, and creating artwork that was selling like hotcakes. Basically, I was the dream of any “agent“ to have. But again, it is NOT, and it NEVER was about them making money off of me. It was so, so much worse… And at the “height“ of my career, I was invited to a private art exhibit/party in the Hollywood Hills that forever opened my eyes to what “they“ are really doing. A party that made me make the “stupid” decision of completely quitting my art career as “Tinman’s Heart” and making a new artist identity for myself, as “Stoner/Artmancer404”. For the past five years, I’ve kept quiet about what I’ve witnessed. Not because of fear, but because I always felt like no one would believe me. I always felt that if I talked about the dark and evil things that were at that party, people would simply not believe me… So what did I see at this party? Stay tuned… I’ll tell you next time.”
