Man, there was no-one like Frazetta.  I would like to get a coffee table book of his coolest pieces one of these days.

I've got one of the Art of Ray Harryhausen, and the minion has perused it more than I have!

They have been reduced to publishing collections of Frazetta's sketches. It is truly disheartening to see sketches better than most people's finished work.

In his later years, he had a stroke that cost him the use of his right hand. So, his doctor convinced him the use his left. I guess he never knew before he was ambidextrous.

Ohh, that's cool, PG!  I love Harryhausen! 

DG, how amazing!

Yeah, he was better with his left hand than a lot of right handed artists with their right.
