One Motorcycle Show

My name is Brenden Smith and I am an artist, mostly a painter.  I have promised 3 large painted pieces (48” x 60”) to the 1 Motorcycle Show in Portland, OR, Feb 13, 14, and 15th and am trying to raise gas and lodging funds to get my paintings and myself up there. 

An artist is always trying to get their artwork in front of as many of the right type of people as possible and this show, in it’s sixth year is an amazing opportunity.  To have every bike builder, bike blogger and industry representative in the US in attendance, as well as every curious motorcycle enthusiast in the Portland, OR area, see my art at this even may result in a sale or other opportunity. 

It’s hard to cash a check on a maybe, so I’m asking my friends for help.

It’s almost 4,000 miles, round trip from my apartment in Aspen, CO to the middle of Portland, OR.  My truck gets a 16mpg.  Gas is cheap right now but if I estimate it at $4 a gallon, we’re talking $1000.  I added $500 for food, lodging and missing three days of work.

This is a big deal and a huge gamble that I’m not used to making.  Some financial backing and support from my friends would go a long way to making this happen for me.  $20 is good, $50 is awesome.  If you throw down $100 or more I’ll get you a signed art print of one of my newer pieces.
