Cantankerous artist. I paint things that look like portraits under some but not all circumstances. For a more social experience follow @museoftomgroves too.

@dsmerdon I guess three approaches, given your additional twist on the issue! (And what a move that is, kudos to whoever played it)

@KLdivergence I knew US-based airlines were bad, but this sounds ridiculous.

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@KLdivergence Man you're really paid too much these days

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@jon_stokes Option C. Pay $100m in cash to never see my kids again. Bargain.

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@dsmerdon Pretty sure if we tried that here in the UK we'd still manage to lose somehow.

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@wtgowers I've given up trying to guess the word as uninteresting. More fun to try to form a proper sentence. Haven't nailed one yet, but close. Unity rather than unify here would've been a lovely fit

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@dsmerdon Gotta be Ke2 surely?

@WelshPixie I realised today that insta never shows me your posts, so I went searching for you and it seems there's a reason for that! Hope things are ok with you. Very nice lettering!

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@jon_stokes I follow you Stokes, BECAUSE I only agree with (some of) your takes.

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@KLdivergence Ooh exciting. What award am I up for?

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@KLdivergence You really think he's smart enough to understand long and complicated words like "credentials"? Bless your optimistic view of other people.

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@sciencecohen Thank god someone on Twitter is giving it to us straight.

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@sciencecohen Yeah but what time on April 18th? Need to know if I should plan a lunchtime date or if I need to wait until the evening. Thanks.

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@LisaGralinski Could've been worse...halfway through the 2nd line I was expecting the last two words to be "a river".

Or is that not actually worse?

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@KLdivergence But you twinge so eloquently.

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@MackayIM @satchitanand21 @ColleenHuberNMD Great thread, excellently put. Also superb job anticipating the questions that I almost certainly would've asked if you hadn't already answered them. Almost certainly.

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@KrutikaKuppalli @angie_rasmussen To be fair to them they only "suggest" this. They're not yet ready to commit fully to such a restrictive range...

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@NovickProf Yeah I did wonder if that would be a problem. You could of course keystone-correct the result to get an approximate result, but I'm guessing that's not good enough for what you need (and that a simple precise solution exists anyway). Must be a stretch option somewhere

[Tom Groves @TomGrovesArt]

@NovickProf Can you use photoshop to wrap the image around a cylinder, and then take the 2d result to achieve the effect you're looking for?
