This reminds me of the time a lion's pride accepted me as one of their own and allowed me to sit among them and paint their portraits! We communicated through a series of growls and roars. This was all documented but one of the lions ate the camera equipment and my paintings, too, so I'm afraid you'll just have to believe me.
Hi James. Even if this story was simply a fantastical dream in the mind of Turner, isn't it wonderful that we have a 65 yr old Superhero who was also one of us?! When we paint, our adventures usually involve some rain, mosquitoes or the occasional angry cow stomping the ground. Just imagining Turner strapped to a mast in the howling wind fills my heart with admiration and encourages my own bravery while painting, (for example in the middle of a frozen mountain lake in the Canadian Rockies...so far, that's my best story; and it's TRUE!!!)
Yes, the story may turn out a whopper — yet I’d like to believe it, knowing that dedicated artists go out of their way for a truly inspiring piece. Likely you have a few of your own favorite stories to tell. And if you could, surely you would paint scenes from the Rainy Basin. After all, recent data suggests that a well-motivated human can outrun a T. rex.

After seeing your alligator pictures, well, I might as well believe that you did it.
Of course! 🤭

Look, I totally believe it. I’m in Florida, and I have a friend who LOVES to watch hurricanes from his sailboat (tied to the dock) —and he’s 70!
When did marketing ever bother about the truth?

Oh wow, never thought to fact check that story. Thanks!

He must have had some kind of help.
