the ‘touch tone, and ‘the harp’ made me speechless.
you have got to start selling these things.
you have to open up a shop on the high street or on the net even.
what are you doing with all of this work. Do you guard your work jealously.?
you can’t have such a gift and not share it.
I am sure that is why God gave it to you.
How long are all of these taking you to do?
There are many people interested in black and African art, and I’m sure that you can sell your pieces in the thousands.
Especially, under a limited edition or ‘one of a kind’ range.
Use ‘basic meo’ as your brand name, it also capture the originality and simplicity of your work.
Otherwise dear, don’t mean to be crude… “when you die… someboday is gonna make a whole lotta money off yo ass’…
… and trust me.. you will want the prestige while you are living. smoking-devil

MJ, thank you so much for your care,
sorry for not reply you on time, I have been so busy and I have not
been able to reply you... The exhibition was a success, even
my work came out in the invitation leaflet, and in publicity poster.
There were a lot of people that came to the exhibition and a lot of
them like my work and ever since my confident have been increase... I
have to thank you along with others brothers and sisters for
encouragement. I have to post the picture of the exhibition
here when I have time. if you want me to send it to you in your 
private mail due to poor quality of attachment
here I could do, just PM your e-mail to me or send me e-mail so that
I send you the picture...
Best regards
--Basic--

Im so into art, and yours are very beautiful! its just last week I was thinking of getting mine on the market. The only thing is mineare not sculptures.
I will not putmineon ebay because I dont have a webcam or anything to put pics up but, by targetting individual buyers by talking and aranging a meet.
Keep it up they are very nice and creative.

Heey Basic_meo ,
Great to see what you've been up to Strangely I feel quite proud to see you in the gallery with your work on myspace. Progressniceone.gifAre you doing more exhibits now?
What is at the bottom of the vase (?)
“If people around you aren't going anywhere, if their dreams are no bigger than hanging out on the corner, or if they're dragging you down, get rid of them. Negative people can sap your energy so fast, and they can take your dreams from you, too.”

Basic:
Thanks for the e-mail.
I see you've been busy. :-) It looks great.
The vase looks quite large--is it or is it the camera angle that is making it look large?
What materials did you use--at first I thought wood but on closer inspection, it is not.
What is the green disk in the first picture--is it the inside of the vase?
When you have time, I'd love to hear more about the imagery or "story" behind the art piece--the toad at the bottom, and looks like there may be three toads amongst the six symbols around the mouth of the vase. Are those three toads or am I imagining things? And what are the other three symbols with the hearts on top?
Speak w/you soon!
