I've received quite a few enthusiastic emails, including this one from Mike Vosburg, who has given me permission to copy and paste it here:<br /><br />"Have a big file on Andy Virgil. He might not have gotten the recognition that all those folks in the Famous Artist's Course and the Cooper Studio crowd, but anybody who takes illustration seriously is well aware of his work.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to the week's inspirations."leifpenghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07232334860061949895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-66914353512764344342007-01-29T16:46:00.000-05:002007-01-29T16:46:00.000-05:00Thank you, Leif, both for this and for all you hav...Thank you, Leif, both for this and for all you have done to keep the great illustrators of the past from being forgotten. <br /><br />Looking forward to the next installment!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-44269047396094926142007-01-29T14:52:00.000-05:002007-01-29T14:52:00.000-05:00wonderful story and look forward to more..I love t...wonderful story and look forward to more..I love these when you post them Lief, you really learn more about the person behind the art...GREAT!Jason Newkirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07504524442025040872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-32197482315499913412007-01-29T12:49:00.000-05:002007-01-29T12:49:00.000-05:00Hi Leif!

We have all followed the published work of illustrators like Virgil, but we rarely get a glimpse behind the curtain to understand the human toll behind the beautiful art. The art market is slowly awakening to the value of this kind of work, but the artists (and often their families) are usually long gone by the time the biographers arrive on the scene. Thank you for preserving this material.David Apatoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11293486149879229016noreply@blogger.com
