Hey Tom,
My hubby wants to contact you about what your requirements are for using an image online. What’s your number? And – when is a good time to all?

Hey Tom,
I just want to say thanks for the work you do. I was inspired by your work to create a series of images for a photo project. I have a couple images up on my site: http://josecotto.tumblr.com. If you ever get a chance to check it out, I would appreciate your thoughts on my work.

Thomas ,I thought I should tell you I will be giving a presentation for my photography class on your work.We were to find a photographer whose work we admired.I searched on line to see if anything new grabbed me,some did but for the most part there was nothing that held my attention.Later that day I was at struck by A small book called Uncovered.I really enjoy that era of art and collect Mens magazines and paperbacks that have that NOIR STYLE of graphics! At some point I would love to photograph one of my many collections of old toys,books,blk memorobilia or space toys to name a few.I will be grabbing some of your work online(to be used strictly for the presentation!) I hope this is ok with you please let me know if I will have to take you to dinner? If so let me know so I can make resevations at Chez Panisse!!,Or at caspers hot dogs and desert at Masse’s. Anyway love your stuff Bud send me a note.
One of your many fans MFG

Oh my God, I am in love! I speak your language, your aesthetic lies within my creative soul. You are an amazing artist, thank you for working outside of “the box”. Mostly, thank you for flooding my perceptions with goosebumps and visceral memories of childhood glee!!!!
