Hello. While I hope that all the people involved with the Kilkenny Vintage Club are well.
I am writing to your Vintage Club regarding a problem that I have which you may be able to help me with..
Being an artist who finds inspiration in painting vintage, plus how old time Ireland looked, I thought my art work might interest you, which I have attached some photos of.
Though the problem is, thirty one years ago, as a result of a motorcycle accident, I temporarily became a quadriplegia. Though being a positive thinking person, despite being disabled I is still working on his rehabilitation, while still holding a total belief that the body can be fully rehabilitated.
Last January I went to see Emmet Walsh, an Ayurvedic Herbalist, near Tullamore, Offaly. Emmet wants me to go to India for one hundred days of Ayurvedic therapy. He says that the Ayurvedic doctors in India are very good and they will be able to help with ones rehabilitation.
The problem is, being on a disability benefit of €180 per week, it wont get one too far. Then with the economy being the way it is, very few people has money for buying my paintings which I’ve being trying to sell to raise money for the trip. My oil paintings mostly feature scenes of how traditional Ireland looked, plus some vintage vehicles cars, plus machinery working. To help raise money for my trip, I was wondering if the your Vintage club would be interested in either buying, or commissioning, an oil painting from me. Some of my paintings can also be seen on Facebook at michaeleganart@gmail.com While the price of my paintings go from €300 up. If you are interested in buying a painting, I can bring the paintings to Kilkenny.
Thank you very much for your time. While I hope that I’ll be hearing from you.
Michael Egan.
