I believe Lily from Sketch Theatre told you I was a fan. :) Still looking forward to whenever you can make it in for a Sketch Theatre session! Here's a shot of the drawing, thanks again!<br /><br />http://sans-concept.com/temp/gurney.jpgEric Carlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03244247928921747569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-21204098770735106262011-10-13T12:41:30.956-04:002011-10-13T12:41:30.956-04:00wow! o love Diablo and Blizzard universe.

I was pretty jazzed to be included in that lineup, which includes my heroes, too.<br /><br />Ledeaux, Yes, I was miked up, and I tried to answer questions and explain what I was thinking about at each step. It definitely is a challenge for me to talk and draw at the same time, but I'm getting the hang of it with practice, and it helped knowing that the audience at Blizzard was all fellow artists.James Gurneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870848001990898499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-13462800082390282012011-10-13T10:02:54.621-04:002011-10-13T10:02:54.621-04:00Jim,

(I see what looks like a mic on the camera.)<br /><br />I teach (information organization, not art!) and sometimes find it difficult to talk and demonstrate at the same time. Since it was only a 20 minutes pose, did you find it difficult to work and teach simultaneously?)<br /><br />Thanks!

Ian McCaig, Alan Lee, yourself and John Howe are all huge influences in my interest in professional art (Dinotopia, Star Wars and the Lord of the rings were all big parts of my childhood.)<br /><br />I never cared much for Diablo as a game, but this book sounds like an amazing lineup so I will definitely be hanging out for it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17910130194789907176noreply@blogger.com
