It is a sad, sad day. But at least his work will never be forgotten and it will continue to influence fantasy artists for generations to come.

Pretty good illustrator, good draphtsman.
I hated his subjects though, no offense intended. I just really don't like the High Fantasy big boobs stuff.
The stuff he did without half naked subjects was good though. Always liked those. And hey, he wasn't as bad as Boris Vallejo.

Always a shame when someone passes away, but he lived a long and fruitful life and obviously played out a long career which he thoroughly enjoyed. What more can you ask for?  :)
