Wanna own a piece of art? Twice?



Those of you who know Sergio probably know the other Sergio too -- his cousin, a phenomenally-talented visual artist who lives in NYC. Sergio is an accomplished painter, whose sometimes disturbing yet always fascinating work can be seen on his website: http://vomitstyle.com/.

Sergio (the one above) has been working the last couple of years on a film called El Coyote, a traditional Western set against the violent drug trade in modern Mexico. He plays a small part in the production: he's the co-producer, co-director, co-writer, and the star.

The film is almost complete but, as with any independent production, funding is a constant challenge. Therefore, he has made an interesting proposal: purchase one of his art pieces (http://vomitstyle.com/), and you will automatically become an investor in the film.

If you're interested, all the details are posted here.

If it's not something you can do right now, but you know someone who can, then spread the word.
