Today, Monday Oct. 29 at 6-7:30, I'll be giving an illustrated talk at the University of Texas at Austin. It's open to the public, but reserve your spot.
Hi James, I was really excited to attend your presentation yesterday. I RSVP'd but at the last minute life got in the way. I was really excited to hear you in person, and maybe get a chance to meet you. There is always next time! I have been a fan for a long time and you have certainly influenced my artistic journey. Thanks! Hope Austin treated you well. Safe travels!
Thank you for coming to UT! and to our practical SFX class. I did not know about your work until J.E. mentioned you in class and I am glad he did! your journey as a self-taught artist amazed me, but I also wanted to know about your wife's work. I am afraid I did not catch her name. See you soon!
Thanks, Unknown. The pleasure was mine to see all your practical SFX ideas working out in real life. My wife's name is Jeanette, and we met as sketching buddies in art school. I left art school, but kept up with her, and she paints by my side most of the time, using watercolor. Diego, see you next time. Thanks for the kind words. Austin was wonderful.
