A few months ago Joseph came to me and asked me to make Art for his Gallery, get other Artists to make Art for it, and promote the show like crazy. I did all of these things and this is the thanks I get. I don't even blame Rebecca Stone for this the real issue was my concerns about making Art with no Insurance or Contracts. This is why you should always get a Contract before you start on anything for a Gallery. Remember Artists if he will throw me(a guy that he called his friend for over a decade) under a bus after coming to me for help what the fuck do you think he will do to you?

First he told me I could Curate for the Gallery. Then after I have myself listed as such for the better part of a month... the same day my enemy Bethannie Newsom Steelman stopped there Gallery for the first time. Coincidence? I think not.
Then a few weeks later after saying "The curator is Keith Haring's quote, "Art is for Everyone". " he anounces...
Then yesterday to add insult to injury he posted this on his wall.
Then he posted this on Star Gallery's Wall
- StarGallery HotSprings
Sorry friends of STAR Gallery - A person named Daniel Kimery is back to spamming our list of friends - if I could hide the friends list from him I would.

Joseph Scott Sheridan Star Gallery is an incredible downtown art institution. Nobody is interested in a gallery's relationship with their artists except Daniel Kimery. It is an artist's choice on how they are represented. I only here good things about Star Gallery's representation except from Daniel Kimery. He has bad relationships with every single art institution that I know of in Hot Springs. He is in no way affiliated with MENTOR DISCIPLE in any way, regardless of what he says or posts. We are all about inclusion. In fact the ONLY reason he might be still allowed to show his portraits as an artist only in our first show at all is because of Keith Haring's quote, "Art is for all People".

Joseph Scott Sheridan No, he does not work for me. I have seen him once in 10 years. I have a regular job myself and am struggling to fulfill my dreams of having a museum that responds to my mentors. I have no employees, just a few volunteers (and Daniel Kimery is not one of them) that have busy lives. If there is any proof that he has threatened anyone, he will not be allowed to come on my property. Every time I pass your Gallery and see all you are putting in to your dream I am so refreshed and happy that someone has created such a vibrant space for local artists and adds to my sense of pride of being in Hot Springs at this time!

StarGallery HotSprings Thanks for clearing that up. I am happy to know you are not really involved in the things he has said. He has listed you as him employer and said you were his friend. I don't know why I tried with him or believe anything he has had to say when he has so clearly lied about the STAR Gallery and several Hot Springs business owners. He has dogged on any gallery that he is not part of and has declared war on everything under the sun. I am sure if you read any of his blog you will see the amount of people he has a negative impact on. I have met you a while back when you would visit The Local. I am so happy to see you are making a gallery in a really cool building that may otherwise fall into ruin as so many other buildings in Hot Springs have done. I am looking forward to the opening and feel free to bring some flyers to the gallery.

For The Record The last time I saw Joseph before a few months ago was five years ago(not ten years ago) when I still drove a cab and he asked for me by name everytime. I WANT TO REMIND ALL OF YOU RIGHT NOW THAT THIS LYING SACK OF SHIT CAME TO ME FOR HELP NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. I WOULD AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE THE PLAGUE UNLESS YOU ARE A GLUTTON FOR PUNISHMENT. INSTEAD OF MENTOR DISCIPLE IT SHOULD BE CALLED DOMINANCE SUBMISSION. RUN AWAY GALLERY ARTISTS!!! RUN FOR YOUR FUCKING LIVES!!!!!!!
Post Script: Here are me and Joseph Scott Sheridan's private messages for anyone that doubts that I was affiliated with his Gallery.

Daniel Kimery- My sincere apologies old friend...I neglected to consider the fact that you are a recovering alcoholic when I suggested curating this event. I hope that we can both get past our little headbutt the other night. It certainly wouldnt have been our our first nor will it be our last lol. That is just how creative people are with eachother. I want you to write Curt Mullins. He is making paintings for your gallery. I also want you to write Jay Wilburn. He is a sketch artist using ebony pencils. I am using Charcoal.

Daniel Kimery- I was talking to Mike valegio about not only making Art for your Gallery but making music for it to. Tell me if you think a live band would be a good idea. Andy Warhol was all about some Rock and Rock so I know that he is giving me a thumbs up from beyond the grave.

Daniel Kimery- Aaron Green said a lot of nasty things about you when I was at his house. He said that he got Joe to fire you for being a drunk.
- I would ban him if I were you. With friends like him who needs enemies.
- He called the cops on me last night for choking him out.
- I almost got arrested because of his drama

Daniel Kimery- Hey Joesph after I finish my three charcoal drawings can I do three more with Conte Crayon to put in your Gallery? I'm not just going to use a different medium I'm going to try to branch out by trying a different style. Please say yes.

- I am going to be donating six drawings to be part of your permanent collection on top of promoting your Gallery like Crazy.
- I'll also refer To The Natural Light Gallery and Warholian Research Library as a Museum from now on and I will have all my clients opt to donate rather than sale but we will have the Art insured because we are donating Art in exchange for exposure. If the Art is lost, stolen, or damaged then we expect to be compensated. This will be the 8th Gallery in Hot Springs that I have had my Art in and I have always had the Art Insured by the Gallery so I hope that this wouldn't be an issue especially since you guys have so much combined experience in The Art Industry.

- Please tell me what the fuck you are doing
- Why is it that any time I have an Argument with someone you jump in on their side then act like you dont know me and that the only reason why you have anything to do with me is because of a keith haring quote which you misquoted btw. It's "Art is for everyone" not Art is for anybody" and he was referring to people buying Art not making Art. If you are going to quote Keith Haring then don't put fucking words in his mouth to try to change the meaning of what he said.
- is this the thanks I get after all the Art I made, all the Artists I sent you, and all of the Promotion that I gave you?
