Frazetta has always been one of my favorite artists, along with James Bama.
It amazed me how small those Frazetta cover paintings really were.
Frazetta was the best at what he did and will be missed.
It's no wonder he wasn't know more for his movie poster work, there's some
real lousy movies in there.

Subject: Re: [MOPO] Frank Frazetta gone
it's sad that his family has to be in the middle of a scandal in Frank's end
days. I have no doubt that his son's asscapades hastened his death.
I've sold several Frazetta paintings and numerous illustrations. The quality of
them was unmatched by others of his time.
he was one o fthe top illustrators of the 20th century and in the last 3rd of
the century there can be no doubt that he influenced more artists than Norman
Rockwell did in the first 3rd (although I will admit, more of the artists
Rockwell influenced - like Frank himself - are better artists than the ones
Frank influenced except for guys like Dave Stevens and Mark Schulz)
Frank is gone, but his legend lives on!
