Description

April 23, 1878 It was a random Tuesday when I finally figured out how I’d make a living. A Friend I had met in passing, XY9288, had beckoned me to their house and explained their situation. They had told their fellow Friends about their prodigious painting skills, but the lie had caught up with them. They confessed that they could barely hold a brunch, let alone use it. The Friends have a particular fascination with art that is hard to describe fully. They covet the ability to paint in a human-like way, but they pretend that humans are incapable of creating great art. It’s a very odd mix that I still don’t fully understand. 9288 asked me if I would perhaps paint for them and let them sign it. A “self-portrait,” perhaps? They would pay me handsomely. I readily agreed. Not only would a source of income be helpful, but only art from Friends was allowed to be displayed publicly. I could get paid and have my ego secretly scratched. And thus, I pained the “self-portrait” of XY9288. The result is a painting I am proud of, and more importantly, I believe the start of many more to come. -CV
