re: BRUSHES
Dear Sir or Madam,
I have just completed writing an original television series pilot, Brushes, an upbeat comedy about the lives of a group of struggling art students. This is an original story inspired by my experiences in college as an artist's model. I'm looking for an agent ready to handle this type of fun commercial project.
Brushes

48 pages.
LOGLINE: An art student tells his parents he's in grad school, but instead he has left school to paint, to test whether he's really an artist. To make money he works at the school as a figure drawing model. He has a crush on his former teacher.
SYNOPSIS: KEN receives a call from his mother. He's in figure drawing class modeling, naked. (Everything is shot to avoid showing actual nudity, like in Austin Powers.) His mobile phone rings. Art students pause drawing him as he talks to his mom. After class the teacher BARBARA asks if Ken would help her by modeling for a series of paintings she's creating for a gallery exhibition. Ken's roommate is an animation geek who gives Ken worthless dating advice.
Barbara meets with her best friend SIMONE who runs the gallery. Simone tells Barbara to find a younger man, someone to inspire her. At the modeling session Ken reveals his interest in Barbara. At the gallery opening Ken's mother is shocked to discover her son Ken nude in Barbara's painting.
This screenplay has been workshopped in readings with actors before a live audience. I've honed it to be funny and entertaining. Although this my first television pilot, I'm experienced as a journalist working quickly on deadline. I've written for many magazines such as the Motion Picture Editors Guild Magazine.
If you are interested in taking a look at the script, please phone or email me. I will mail it for your review. I'm happy to sign a release form if you need that. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
Robin Rowe
