Definitely a nice painting and also a nice story. It's always nice to hear that another person starts accepting bitcoin, especially when it's for real word purchases. OP should give us some tips on how to convince people.

Convincing people to accept bitcoin is easy. Convincing them to hold it is not as easy. I never try and convince people to hold bitcoin, rather I suggest they buy a small amount that they are comfortable with, and then begin to research more. I believe you need to own a little to be excited enough to really figure out exactly what it is. I was familiar with bitcoin in 2011, but I never bought (it was difficult then) In 2012 I made a small purchase via wire transfer, and once I owned a little, and began transacting, I was hooked on the concept.

It was the artists first time accepting bitcoin, and he has plans to hold onto most of it.

I shared on reddit, and wanted to share with you fine people as well :-)

The artist is Ricky Allman. He was working simultaneously on these three paintings when we met, and I had to have one of them. These took six months to complete.

Here’s an interview juxtapoz did on Ricky. Very interesting.

The other two that are still available haven't left his studio yet. If anyone is interested, let me know and I'll get you in touch with Ricky! I'm very happy with my investment.

This has to be one of the coolest paintings I've seen.  Very nice!  I think it's worth every bit of that 20 BTC.
