Timothy Razkani and Donald Gates prepare to launch Abstract Underground

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) March 20, 2010 -- Abstract underground is going to be the place to go for high quality original prints. The launch is expected towards the middle of April. Timothy found himself amazed at a New York art fair when he brought in over $20,000 with only a few pieces auctioned. Donald Gates found the young man and inked him for a 50% running control of a company they are launching very soon to bring Timothy Razkani's art pieces public.

They plan to get the man exposure by exploring several internet means of delivery, art fairs, and schools. His paintings speak for themselves in originality. Abstract art is a true art and becoming a great Abstract artist..... Well.... You either have it or you don't, and Miss Angelo, who was Timothy's art teacher from a young age, saw potential in the boy and remains in contact with him to this day. Timothy is not much of a business man. Some canvas, paint, paint brushes, and a box of Roman Noodles and he is set for the week. He wasn't really interested when Donald approached him about making a business deal.

We actually caught up with Donald and this is what he had to say. "I have never seen somebody or met somebody that didn't care about money. I told him how much money he could make and he wasn't interested. At the New York art fair he was approached by several business men and they couldn't strike a deal with him, he kept saying "I just want to paint please leave me alone." I kept pushing him and pushing him on the money side, but he wouldn't break. I finally took a different route with him. I pitched him like this "could you imagine just painting and dropping out of school and not even knowing anything about business, but having one of the most successful abstract art businesses in America?" I finally had his attention. Before I said this to him, I thought to myself "he doesn't want the money, he doesn't like school, he loves to paint, well.... that is all he loves, but he needs money." It hit me like a ton of bricks. Timothy wasn't interested in doing the business because he doesn't care and nobody had pitched the idea that nothing in his life would change with the business, except his ability to buy art supply and live his dream of painting all the time. He just didn't want to have his time consumed with things like paper work, all of Timothy's paper was really canvas work with a brush!!! I asked him what he wanted to call it and with in a second the answer was "Abstract Underground."

So the world and America can expect to see even more of his work that was submitted to the New York art fair very soon. http://www.abstractunderground.com will be launching very soon. Donald is even considering some more practical measures of getting the art out to the public before the launch. Think just anyone is going to get the art? Not so fast... His first 3 pieces auctioned for an average price of $5,277. Donald is thinking more supply may bring the cost down a little, but not too much.
