This is in an attempt to generate enough money for a billboard project in New Orleans.

I am trying to find a way to raise funds for the purchase of a billboard down in New Orleans, LA. It is a big chance for more people to see my vision as an artist, and better yet an chance for the citizens of New Orleans to see something besides advertisements everywhere. Your support for this opportunity is greatly appreciated and I hope this project works out for me. Thank you for your continued support of me and my dreams to become an artist. In addition I have the artist Dave Rhodes info that he told me about the project below. If you have any questions please ask me.

Things have been moving forward very fast, so much so that the initial 8 billboards CBS was going to give us for this project wasn't enough and I talked them into letting us artists have more. Which is amazing. More art spread around the city during Mardi Gras.

Right now we have an artist from Amsterdam, Ontario, Australia's "Top 20 Photographers", Art In America's "Who's Who List" from Florida, two from Brooklyn, Sante Fe, and more. Feedback and conversations over the phone with some of the artists reps have been more than positive and encouraging as I push along making this happen for everyone.

I've attached a letter of recommendation from the executive that I have been working with and developing this arts program with. I have about four billboards left and a dozen artists still interested.

Risks and challenges Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

The biggest challenge from this opportunity is raising the money fast enough to actually get one of the billboards left. Dave Rhodes is trying to acquire more billboards, but there are other artist that still trying to get one of these billboards.
