The Pope of Greenwich Village

Pope Benedict is coming to New York. I remember when Pope John Paul ll visited New York in 1979. He traveled down Fifth Avenue in the Pope-mobile right past Parson School of Design, on 13th Street, in Greenwich Village. I was an art student at the time. I took some pictures and did a sketch from a window on the 12th floor illustration department.

    I was sort of perusing your website and I really admire your work, you have a very distinct style that I like very much. Would you mind if I shot you an email (the one on your webpage) to ask you just a couple of questions about being an illustrator? It’s something I’ve been considering as a career but don’t really know the details of what it’s like. Thank you soo much!
