A Lost Art

Another favorite artist and entertainer of mine has passed, just as few days after Davy Jones. We in the fandom community have lost a legend and those of us who are artists have lost quite a trailblazer. This man was not only a great designer and artist but brought attention and respect to the movie concept designer, formerly viewed as a background component in filmmaking among the general movie going populace.





Ralph McQuarrie, character and concept designer on such films as Star Wars, E.T., Close Encounters of The Third Kind and many more, has passed on at the age of 82
