Here is a great video/interview with/about him:

I used to show videos of him drawing to my drawing class students. I was just telling the daughter of a friend of a friend to look at his work a couple months ago. I regret not buying all of his published sketchbooks.

I only discovered him last year. He made me want to pick up the pencil again.

I just heard. Liked what he was doing. "Only the good die young." RIP
