I received a facebook request from this artist. This was his original message:

Hi, I want to introduce myself. I’m Christopher, Mouth Artist in Tarpon Springs Florida. I am a paralyzed Artist (shallow water diving accident in 1992) that paints and draws by holding brush in my mouth. I am self taught and have never had any formal art teaching.
Please feel free to check out some of my paintings that I have posted in my profile pictures. Thank you for your FB friendship.

I thought it was necesary to post his work here seeing as though he does some phenominal artwork. He does a lot of boating scenes and thought it was appropriate. Truly inspiring. Here is a sample, enjoy:



Keep in mind he paints with his mouth...incredible.

Here is some info:

Hello, Thank you for contacting me. Yes I do commission paintings. I do a 12X18 like the "Popeyes" boat I just posted for $250 plus shipping. I will need several hi-res pictures to work from and my turn around time is about two weeks.
Please see my bio and other art on my website www.paintbyteeth.com
Have a great day! Thanks for your FB friendship and please tell friends about my artwork.

That's pretty good! Lots of other examples in his galleries.

yep, the guys amazing! saw his art a few weeks ago and was amazed!

wow, amazing and truly inspirational.

very cool, I think bobthebuilder, Gino, JBS and GLH needs one of these and Jay could send him some of his photos. $250.00 is very reasonable.

As a suggestion, you might want to change the header of the thread or start a new one, something like Awesome and reasonable original paintings of your boat. More people might look at the thread. Donna

good suggestion...yea im trying to build a little publicity for him...see if anyone is interested in buying a painting.

I sent the mods a message...

I expected it to be $2500 after seeing the quality.

$250 is more than reasonable, and I'm going to contact him about doing my boat. My lake house always has a blank wall for something cool like that.

I almost added you and e dock in with that group, our boat is to old and would not match my decor

Brandon are you still a mod, perhaps you can help him change the title of the thread. Donna

I went on the artist's FB page and noticed Bob's already on it, LOL he probably has a rendering already started. A gift certificate for a picture like that would make a nice prize at a poker run.
