Wow looks like an ACD at Grey NY sent out a request for "free" art from an digital artist for one of their multimillion dollar clients and then insulted the artist... now the artist is lighting up the blogosphere about this guy.
"If we had money for this, we'd be going after real artists...who paint on real canvases. Not the digital fake stuff."

Amazing how this stuff catches on. The ACD, Mr. Torres' site is now down. He's been Båshed.

TJ's artwork is stellar. Pretty sure he's a real artist.

Clients have money. That's BS. They can find more for a good idea.
- If they don't have it upfront, they don't expect a good idea.monospaced
- Certainly they can find like $200 for this guy.********
- Certainly he wouldn't do the work for only $200monospaced

But who will report it?!

His name and career is forever tarnished thanks to Google because of a semi-rude response and greedy business practice by a huge agency (maybe not his fault).
- maybe not his fault?? I completely disagreedbloc
- Associate Creative Director, who knows.********

But I'm all for Grey getting hurt. What do they actually do at their NYC offices if all their work is TV commercials?:
