  He isn't a "con artist" he's a very talented man. To create the work that he did takes an enormous level of skill and understanding of the subject. I would happily give his work house room any day of the week.

  He lived by the "If you can, then you must" motto and without malice or greed. He was fascinated by the great artists and tried to emulate their greatness and he used the museums and galleries as the litmus test for validation of his abilities. The one thing that wasn't quite explained was how he could regularly sell supposedly important artwork since their provenance would certainly come into question.

  I have to admire him, 60% of attributed art is fake, as for all these "art experts" they are complicit in the whole scam.

  Clearly a very talented bloke, It seemed like the more greedy up themselves types in the art world, the more they were blinded by what they saw. He just maybe more of a genuine person than any of them.

  How strange that a very down to earth, unassuming, extremely intelligent and talented man is psychoanalysed by three people who are no strangers to botox, who clearly can’t identify as their true selves. How can they judge anyone? <br>The ego’s have landed

  It&apos;s amazing that they will throw a humble, kind hearted man like this in jail for years, yet allow vicious, predatory perverts to walk the streets with a tag. &nbsp;Who benefitted from jailing him? &nbsp;Whos felt safer on the streets knowing he was imprisoned?

  The music is audible, even if the words are not. The music is obviously designed to tell us how to feel.

  “Justice” is only for a certain class that pays to have “justice” over them. We pay for the true criminals to keep an eye on us and put us away if we want more because with clean and legit work you will NEVER achieve much. <br>The true criminals operate in a realm where there is no need for justice. They decide what’s justice for the rest. <br>This man should have been given a medal and a job at the homes of those criminals to restore the real art pieces he was making copies of since all museums worldwide have copies. The true pieces hang at mansions of those that decide justice. I went to see Mona Lisa. I was blown away at the line to see a copy as I really don’t think that was the real Mona Lisa.

  his personality is much more than so called psychological experts or &nbsp;neuroscientist who conducts tests analysis to find out what could be the underlying cause of the forgery .. <br><br>apparently he&apos;s smart, adept, extremely talented artist <br><br>don&apos;t care, my opinion he&apos;s not a criminal even if the end product was a fake .. he didn&apos;t even touch the money at the bank, he just wanted to prove he can make &quot;it&quot; .. that makes him an artist ..
