    You’ll recognize the work of Netherlands-born artist Remko Heemskerk in New York City’s colorful and stylized See the City campaign. Now he’s revealed how every artwork is inspired by a personal connection to each of the buildings. Heemskerk first moved to Manhattan when his wife got a job at the United Nations three years ago. After working in advertising as a graphic designer and art director for 15 years, he decided to take a sabbatical when he arrived in Greenwich Village, rethink his career and start drawing again.
