he sounds amazing! mickie doesn't like/hates to think of herself as talented at all, even though she is. and she's more into "weirdo art" so i can see maybe they met at an art gallery or even passing while buying supplies and him just starting to talk to her - which would totally take her aback. i looove that he wouldn't even notice she was quiet at first. i could definitely see her appreciating his work a lot and trying to get some of his stuff at a gallery in town. opposites attract in this case, i love it!
