Bob's ART du Jour

Hi, I'm Bob Eggleton and this is my painting and "life in general blog" but mostly paintings. Usually they're for sale. Anyway, if you like something contact me at zillabob@cox.net and ENJOY!!

Location: New England, United States

I am a Hugo award-winning fantasy/SF artist who works on both publishing projects and film concept work(such as Jimmy Neutron and most recently, The Ant Bully) but I have a passion for landscape work, small paintings and exploring the properties of paint. This blog will mostly showcase my "painting-for-the-day" as kind of a personal voyage. I'll also be inserting sketches,photos and ideas of projects I am working on, that I can, when I can, so look for those every so often(usually as paint is drying!)

His Space Odyssey...

Just found out Arthur C. Clarke died...SF has lost another giant, but, being 90, it was not unexpected.....

His work was important to me, because 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY was a benchmark in terms of what got me into SF in the first place. He shared a screenwriter credit with Stanley Kubrick on the film, which, oddly is 40 years old this coming April!

Makes me want to go out and hurl a bone into the air in his honor...
