Germs tells me his next piece will be a similar style portrait of Timothy Leary.

Looking forward to that one, as I met Dr. Leary several times in the 70s while working on an undergrond comic called "Timothy Leary NEUROCOMICS," along with artist Pete Von Sholly and George DiCaprio (Leo's dad), who wrote the script for it.

...he has lived in France for a long time.

George knows him from way back.

I have met quite a few "celebrities" though, having worked on many movie/tv/live stage projects starting back in 1984, up until 2010.
