Yes, so do we! I have the book in my bookcase in the bedroom.
(it was my son's, as we have a video game for 3.1 of it too)

I never made the connection... some members of WetCanvas recommended him for plein air painting and put up a video.

But when I saw his studio video, I was intrigued and so searched him on the phone last night. There went most of my sleep for the rest of the night.

His bio is very interesting. He is mostly self taught too. Only two semesters of art training at a school.
(his bio is on Wiki)

I decided to buy the book, Color and light therefore.

This review goes thru the whole book... so it will be great for me.

The Dinotopia is only one part of his work... he has illustrated over 100+ SciFi/fantasy books too. And here I am sitting around like a lump having my own artist's block...sigh.
