Dear nothought,
I am writing you on behalf of the My Hero Project.
www.myhero.com
The MY HERO Project is a not-for-profit, project-based, learning resource on the internet that celebrates the best of humanity. Every school year we work with over 40,000 classrooms in celebrating heroes.
May I have your permission to feature your “allen ginsberg: for america” in our digital gallery www.myhero.com/gallery for National Poetry Month? Together with a short artist’s statement about heroism, I could create a MY HERO Gallery Page that not only celebrates the subject but gives you, the artist, exposure to the 3-4M hits per month that we currently enjoy by linking directly to your website.
Our mission is to engage young minds in the process of celebrating heroism and in so doing, to promote role models, non-violence, peace, human rights and tolerance; values personified in this inspirational poet and the art you’ve dedicated to him.
Here are some Gallery Pages made from the work of other professional artists who are part of The MY HERO Gallery:

And there are many more.

Thank you for your consideration,

Bad ass drawing. I love what you did with the distortion of his glasses. And I keep getting lost in that small triangle of nose right about his nostril. Wicked.
