I was contacted out of the blue last year by the production guys from Marc Maron's IFC show. They wanted a portrait of Marc to use as a title card for a series of online videos, promoting the upcoming (and final) season of the show. I was jazzed to the gills, seeing as I'm an avid listener of Maron's WTF podcast.
"This looks fantastic! We'll get back to you!" Of course I know that, for show biz folks, this actually means, "We hate this, and we're never going to contact you again." Or maybe the whole online video promo scheme got canned anyway. Ah well, such is the life of an illustratrix in these aggressive times.
Knowing Maron's tastes, he probably wanted Drew Friedman.
