He is a true inspiration. I found out about him in highschool when I bought the Fire & Ice DVD. In my opinion he is the Kubrick of dynamic illustration.

Great tribute! Not only was he such a great artist, what a creative mind he had! He thought up so much without having the internet or movies like they are now to turn to for a little creative thought.

"I consider myself to be a creative artist...not just a fantasy illustrator. I work purely from my imagination, no swipes, no photographs. I stress good composition and design that borders on the abstract in spite of the subject matter."- Frank Frazetta
