Petar Meseldžija's New Blog

Petar Meseldžija has started a blog. The second post starts with the proverb: “ There is no shortcut to the place that is truly worthwhile of being at.”

Seeing his sketches, photo reference, and closeup details shows how true that proverb is.

Hi James
Side note but I noticed Amazon shipped Color and Light today so I guess its in stock ( i preordered back in June) ? Looking forward to reading it.

My Pen, yes, Amazon has the books in stock, and we expect to get our shipment tomorrow or the next day. Our mail-order customers should get their signed books shipped very soon.

Sorry for this being off-topic, but I found this and wanted to share it with you. A new book, Star Wars Visions has been released, with free art inspired by Star Wars, with many different artists. This one reminded me a lot of Dinotopia, and thought you'd like to see it.

Thanks James! I was lucky enough to have Petar and his wife stop by my table at Illuxcon this year. I also was able to see some of his drawings and paintings in person. Beautiful!!! One of my favorites out there today! I'm definitely following his blog. Have you considered attending Illuxcon 4? It would be a pleasure crossing paths again considering how much you've inspired me! Take care!

Andrés: thanks for the link. Lucas's approach to Naboo reminds me of the old story of the unwise gardener who tried to graft an apple branch onto an orange tree, with regrettable results.

Everyone knows what came first.

Well, it's only got three entries, but so far it looks like it's got some interesting content attached to it. Thanks for sharing James. I hope Andrés is appreciative of the up tick in blog traffic this is likely to bring his way.
