I met him, back in the 1980s, when I was still doing paintings, myself[0]. I was surprised at how short he was.
BTW: He was a bodybuilder, and was the model for many of his paintings. His wife also featured in many.

- vibbix 2y agoThank you for sharing, the paintings are pretty awesome

- Nevermark 2y agoReally great! While being obviously simpler than old school sci-fi/fantasy paperback covers, the scene arrangement and energy is spot on.
- actionfromafar 2y agoI love "Fugitive" :-D
- ChrisMarshallNY 2y agoThat was one of my earlier ones. If you look at the ring on the lizard-finger, you'll see "CDM 84."
- cubefox 2y agoI like the high contrast in "Dragon Rider".
- ChrisMarshallNY 2y agoThat was partly the photographer's fault. The pictures started as 8X10s, taken with a Hasselblad, but the guy that did it (for free, so I didn't complain) was a portrait photographer. Also, many of the subtle color differences did not come through (like thalo blue vs. thalo green, in Sentinels). Nowadays, a digital camera could do a lot better.
- ChrisMarshallNY 2y agoThat was an error. I just found one of the negatives. They were 4 X 5 film.
