Dear JohnJohn,

I’m writing on behalf of The MY HERO Project.

www.myhero.com

We are a not-for-profit, project-based learning resource on the internet and I’m the curator of our digital gallery. As its curator, I am always looking for outstanding art to feature in our digital gallery.

May I have permission to feature your “President Obama” on our website for Black History Month?

www.myhero.com/gallery

With your permission AND YOUR THOUGHTS about what makes Obama heroic to you, (this makes each piece in our gallery special) I would be able to make a beautiful digital Gallery Page to share with our online community of 3M+ hits per month (mostly students from over 44,000 classrooms worldwide) – linked to your website, if you have one.

Here’s a quick look at a piece from The MY HERO Gallery that we were given permission to use by renowned street artist Shepard Fairey:

Please write me at david@myheroproject.org

Thank you for your consideration – This is a beautiful piece.

David
Curator

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

I don't mind manipulations as long as there is credit for the drawing. Just don't try to sell any prints of it
