Does it seem like a scam?
Its abbreviated text seems scamy? But some people just aren't erudite writers.
He may have gotten my business card from one of the places I show, but why does he is asking a potter rather than a painter? Am I the only artist he knows of, or did he see one of the very few drawings I've displayed?
I could possibly do the commission, but won't, as I“m not a painter I would take so long and struggle so hard I would loose money and gain frustration. So if this is legit, I would pass it along to one of my painter friends. But it would be terrible if it scammed them. My art club gals aren't as cynical as I am ;-)
