ROY LICHTENSTEIN. I was fortunate to meet Roy when he was painting a mural for the Creative Artists Agency in Beverly Hills back in 1990. What a delightful person. With a twinkle in his eye! He's the only artist I ever sent fan mail to and he invited me to meet him while on the West Coast. Most of his art was based on cartoons and he was famous for using dots in the background to replicate the strips in newspapers. I keep a postcard from him on my desk.
