Peter Cusack is an artist and Professor of Art and Art History at St. John’s University and FIT in New York, and a member of both the Society of Illustrators and the Art Students League. Being born, bred, seasoned and sizzled in New York City, Peter’s work is imbued with the spirit of the city. With sketchbooks full of subway denizens, Peter received his dream assignment when invited to propose mural designs for the new Metro-North subway station at Yankee Stadium, and the restoration of the 153rd Street Parkchester station. His work has been exhibited in the New York Transit Museum, the Society of Illustrators, and the Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby traveling group show.
Posting above is a page from Michael Fleishman’s book, The Visual Artist at Work includes Peter’s thoughts on art, process and drawing. Selections from his sketchbook will appear in Danny Gregory’s newest book, An Illustrated Life: Drawing Inspiration from the Private Sketchbooks of Artists, Illustrators and Designers.
