		<description>Hi my name is Alison Rutsch and I am an art student. This is a message directed to whoever took the pictures of the damage from hurricane katrina.  I am doing a series of paintings based on my own memories and the memories of my family, juxtaposed against what the places they remember are like currently.  My parents are from New Orleans and I was hoping to use images of Katrina as references for some of my paintings.  I am writing to ask your permission to use your images of the damage from Katrina as references for my paintings(I'm not sure if this is the exact place to ask this, but I was unable to find an email to contact you)-I will by no means be making copies of your images and am not a photo-realistic painter.  It would be a big help.
If you could please get back to me soon, I would be much obliged.
Thank you,
Alison Rutsch (arutsch@gmail.com)
PS- As someone who has close attachments to New Orleans, I think what you're doing is very important and I hope to show your website to my parents and grandparents who lived there.
