Not all beautiful paintings is found only in exhibits.This man is a proof of hardworks and dedications can lead to somthing great.
并非所有漂亮的画,都只是在展品中。这个男人的努力和付出,也可以带来伟大的成就。

Vincent Van Gogh's works are only popular after his death. I wonder what would happen if he gained popularity during his life.
梵高的作品在他死后才受欢迎,我想知道,如果他活着大受欢迎会发生什么。

Despite his circumstances, he still manages to find artist graded paints. Very motivating.
尽管处境艰难,他还是设法找到了艺术家级的颜料。非常激励人。

I hope he does raise his prices later. He needs to up his value since he is putting a lot of work and effort into his paintings. Customers that really love his paintings will pay more.
希望他以后能提高价格。他需要提高自己的价值,因为他在绘画上投入了大量精力。真正喜欢他的画的人会买账。

Yes once he have more orders xD
Off topic, I wonder how much he would save if he quit smoking.
一旦,他有更多的订单。大概会如此。
离题了,我想知道,如果他戒烟会省多少钱。

Hope people does not get rich with his paintings after he dies... Like so many other artists that died in poverty only just for being exploited by others years after, when the paintings get famous.
希望他死后,不要屯他画发财。像许多其他艺术家一样,他们在贫困中死去,多年后,当画出名时,被其他人利用剥削。

@condorX2 A pack of cig is probably less than $4. It is pretty condescending way to make your statement tho. Smoking is definitely not healthy but most Chinese or smoker in general use it to cope with hardship.
一包烟可能不到4美元。虽然是一种傲慢的表达。但吸烟绝对不健康,大多数中国人吸烟,通常用来应对烦恼。

On the canvas stand it he wrote “won’t steal, won’t beg, won’t lower my head even if I starve to death.” Great man.
画布上,他写道:“不会偷,不乞讨,不低头。”伟人啊。

There’s another more literal interpretation, but this seems to be more poetic and flows nicer.
还有一种字面的解释,更有诗意,传播起来更好。
@Joe A. Yup yup, like “starve to death won’t steal, starve to death won’t beg, starve to death won’t lower head.
是的。就像:“饿死不会偷,饿死不乞讨,饿死不低头”。

No words can express my anger for how underrated and underpriced his paintings are. $47 for his painting is way too little, it is absolutely nothing.
47美元!没有任何语言能形容我的愤怒,这太便宜了。

Maybe you can order some landscape paintings from him at USD150 each? I'm sure delivery will be free.
也许你可以向他订购风景画,每张150美元?我相信送货是免费的。

That’s what most amateur painters without a name make, especially in Asia where there is always someone better than you.
这就是大多数的业余画家,特别在亚洲,那里总有比你好的人。

"I cant sell them at a high price because im not a professional"
Dont say that! Ive seen people with way worse art sell it for way higher! I dont know how pricing goes in china but those arts are worth a lot more than 47$!
“我不能高价出售,因为我不是专业人士”
别那么说!我见过更差的人卖的更高!我不知道中国的定价情况,但这些艺术品的价值远远超过47美元!
很敬佩。如果一切都为了地位,人们就不会理解艺术。艺术学校试图量化,教授艺术,但艺术是讲究天赋的。

艺术家更关心的是作品,而不是金钱。遗憾的是,艺术家不懂得自我包装。他需要一个真诚的商业伙伴,来帮助扩大和发展他的业务。

I admire his passion. People don't understand art if it's all about status. Art schools try to quantify and teach it, but art is a talent/instinct for beauty and aesthetics.

This guy is too honest! giving away an commissioned painting just because he isn't completely satisfied with it himself!? he has real character but that's unnecessarily generous.
这家伙太实诚了!仅仅对画不满意就把它送人!?真有个性,但没必要这样。

True artists care more about their integrity than their money. Sadly, artists are usually pretty bad at self-promoting. He needs a sincere and trustworthy business partner to help him expand and grow his art business.

Now that the internet has found him, I hope he gets a real chance to make a comfortable living just painting his art. This guy is so talented.
现在,他火了,希望他能抓住这次机会,靠画画过上舒适的生活。这家伙很有天赋。

I think I would pay close to $100 for his paintings. Just knowing the conditions that it was born from and the cigarette smoke gives it personality.
我会花100美元左右买他的画。仅仅是画的环境,就造就了它的个性。
