John Ross Palmer (whether it's John Robert Palmer or not is almost irrelevant now, but if it is it's a honey hole @ 9 Bucan St.)
This guy has a cover story like James Alefantis, except in Houston. And his house is a fu*king Art Gallery.
Comes out of no where onto the art scene after his father died in 1998. Never had a solid job before then it seems. Was so successful in his new art style, "Escapism", that merely a decade later he is being recognized by past traitor president GHWB in association with the Points of Light Foundation?
Not to mention, saving enough to rebuild an old bungalow (very expensive stretch of town). How much art can he possibly sell in 11 years (1998 - 2009)?
And also being so important, there is an article written about the redesign.

Someone save me if this seems normal.
