There is enough money now to live a good long time. I hope we can make it at Bel Air on between 30.00 and 40.00 a month I feel very much what you said that the best way to do is to sell things and speed them out for whatever money one can get. I like that idea better than cracking them with a show. Somehow from going around to galleries and what contact I have had with the art world I feel a hard cut throat atmosphere there.
