We only scratched the surface of the City of Light, and sure hope to get back there again soon. <BR/><BR/>Erik, yes, the size of the comics are all relative. Maybe American comics seem smaller because us readers are supersized.<BR/><BR/>Thomas: "friendly country for illustration" is an understatement. The standards for drawing in BD are so high, and I wish we could import more into the US.<BR/><BR/>Mike, I'm sorry but I really have no clue about the Boston art scene.<BR/><BR/>Dag, thanks for your kind words, and Superwu--you must be kidding about the late-night clubbing. By 8:30 I was back in the hotel jabbing the remote for funniest home videos and Octoberfest singalong shows.James Gurneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870848001990898499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-20121820064526741582008-10-11T10:34:00.000-04:002008-10-11T10:34:00.000-04:00Hello Mr. Gurney,I'm a huge fan of your work, both...Hello Mr. Gurney,<BR/><BR/>I'm a huge fan of your work, both the art and this blog. Thank you for both!<BR/><BR/>I've been lurking for a while and I've finally worked up the nerve to post.<BR/><BR/>Ah, Paris, I was there last June mostly to study, and I envy you greatly, I miss that city everyday, I could spend a lifetime there! You could spend the rest of your life studying just the city not to mention the galleries and then another lifetime on the masters. I can't wait to hear about your time in Louvre!<BR/><BR/>The comic stores are absolutely beautiful there, and in abundance, Album being one of my favorite places to visit.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03420732610057663641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-23196836875668630752008-10-10T08:48:00.000-04:002008-10-10T08:48:00.000-04:00It's true that France is a really friendly countr...It's true that France is a really friendly country for illustration.

I was wondering do you know if there are any good places of learning in the area for aspiring painters? I've been out in LA for the summer and there are so many workshops and classes available for artists here and I was hoping to find something like that in the New England area. <BR/><BR/>I would love to be a part of a painting group, but I just don't know where to look.<BR/><BR/>Thanks!<BR/>-MikeMike Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16236384724761491567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-13304713571998868922008-10-09T18:46:00.000-04:002008-10-09T18:46:00.000-04:00haha, all the make up is making you look a bit tir...haha, all the make up is making you look a bit tired, <BR/><BR/>haha, or maybe its all that late night european clubbing you and janette are doing...man slow down the pace...haha!Super Villainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15464419328369980879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-11801378639410182422008-10-09T16:05:00.000-04:002008-10-09T16:05:00.000-04:00--and TV shows that interview comics creators and ...--and TV shows that interview comics creators and illustrators???!!<BR/><BR/>America, wake up!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00423051076809524563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-8741283291962041622008-10-09T15:15:00.000-04:002008-10-09T15:15:00.000-04:00hey hey i got it and it's a really nice book.All o...hey hey i got it and it's a really nice book.<BR/>All of your work is amazing.Daghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15064383246758061488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-46200830291077583312008-10-09T11:05:00.000-04:002008-10-09T11:05:00.000-04:00A whole store just for sci-fi books!?A whole store just for sci-fi books!?Patrick Waughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03445171256989675340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-66376009897663775702008-10-09T06:26:00.000-04:002008-10-09T06:26:00.000-04:00And it's funny that I will be able to see an inter...And it's funny that I will be able to see an interview with JG on a TV show that I know of so many interviews with my european comic heros like Moebius and other gods!Erik Bongershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02409523352634066030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-60504272288591624402008-10-09T05:52:00.000-04:002008-10-09T05:52:00.000-04:00Hmmm, a small comment on those 'oversized french c...Hmmm, a small comment on those 'oversized french comics'.<BR/>In fact they are normal sized.<BR/>It's the american comics that are small sized.<BR/><BR/>Sorry I missed the Paris signing.Erik Bongershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02409523352634066030noreply@blogger.com
