One of the modern masters is gone......

Legendary artist (and all around cool dude) Frank Frazetta left a hole in the artworld today (and took a little piece of myself with him) Words cannot express the loss..

Frazetta made a personal impact on me earlier than I can remember. Being a artist he was one of the guys i was trying to copy while still using crayons and I 've never stopped trying to learn from his genius. He inspired me so much that his name was brought up when thinking of a name for my last son. (I couldnt talk my wife into it).
He will be missed..
