As an iunsdtry veteran for nearly 40 years, I agree that much permanent life insurance is mis-sold by agents with the complicity of misinformed clients. However, there are mistakes galore here. the commissions for most all term insurance are virtually the same perccentage relative to first year premiums which is where most commissions are paid. Second, much term' life insurance today is built on a universal life mainframe which costs the insurance less in capital/reserves to support long term guarantees. This main frame can design a term plan for virtually any number of years not just 10, 20, or 30. A term plan could be designed with guaranteed premiums to age 80 or 90 very easily and such a contact would have little or no cash value component. Emphasis is strictly on guaranteed, low premiums. But, in addition, a permanent policy might have more utility than the author knows about, since some contracts today allow for the access to the death benefits NOT merely the cash values to help pay for medical expenses from long term care, for critical illness such as heart attacks, strokes and cancer, etc. So while the cash' value of the policy might be very low, the client could still access a half million dollars -tax free- for a significant heart attack and a 3 vessel bypass operation. As we all get older, and since most people don't have an emergency fund of $300K or $400K for medical expenses, and since Medicare is now starting to deny many expenses for legitimate illnesses, having life insurance you don't have to die to use could be a very good thing especially for aging baby boomers. You need to come into the 21st century. Your stuff is good, but 10 years behind the times. |

Yes Deb... Although I would say it this way... The art work is expressing a feeling or idea
which I'm trying to describe through lines, shapes, colors and values. Because I work
spontaneously I don't always know exactly what the idea is in the beginning but as I work
through the design the idea develops and it reveals itself. Sometimes the idea reveals
itself very quickly and the title is quite easy (Example: Social anxiety). Many times it's
several weeks before I can more fully understand the finished work and title it.
In the end, each work has two layers. The 1st layer is what you physically see and this is
the design (line, shape, color, texture and value) and their arrangement. I call this the
beauty layer. The second layer is the psychological/emotional layer. The emotional layer
gives the work its depth. As in all works of art the viewer gets to decide how deep they
want to get in to a work of art. How well they want to understand the idea. As the artist I
just give you the opportunity!

Trent, outstanding art work....I love it. I wonder where you come up with the names for these pieces. Does it have something to do with what you were feeling/thinking as you worked on the piece or is it something you saw/thought/felt after the piece was completed and you stepped back and looked at it...inquiring minds want to know.  |

Trent, beautiful website. You have terrific images of your work. I hope this brings in buyers for your art. Many people will be proud to display these pieces in their homes or offices. |

I really enjoyed seeing your work in person. It was so much better to see the origionals. I still can't believe that it's just permanent marker. Amazing! |

So glad to see your website up and running! I think you should add all of your work to the gallery here including sold pieces. Hope the rest of the 14 South show went well!

I second the above suggestion. As I scrolled through, tht was my thought -"I wonder what they cost?" Keep up the great work! |

Hey Trent, this looks great. The only thing I would add is the prices $. Your work is
reasonably priced and people are sometimes interested but affraid to ask because they think
it costs too much for them. That might help your sales. Good luck w/ the 14 south thing.
Best, Tim |
