Cyrano de Bergerac

Wednesday, 24 September 2008 09:55 by david
While during my normal blog reading rounds I was reading Jake Parker and saw his rendition of Oscar Wilde for a site collecting literary portraits. I gave a stab, even being not well read. I thought of a person that would be... Dr. Niles Crane... and took his cue.

Following one of his obscure references led me to Hector Savinien de Cyrano de Bergerac who was a French dramatist and duelist who is now best remembered for the many works of fiction which have been woven around his life story. In these fictional works he is featured with an overly large nose; portraits suggest that he did have a big nose, though not nearly as large as described in Rostand's play and the subsequent works about him. 

I sketched it out last night and sent it to Seven Gettis and to my suprise he was shocked. Steven tried to get in touch with me several months ago through www.totoroforestproject.org, to request a sketch from me.

I encourage you to check the site out, another great colaboration. www.digitalmedusa.com/sgettis/word

the auction, the book, the people

Monday, 15 September 2008 04:27 by david

I cannot begin to tell everyone how exciting last weekend was at Pixar for the Totoro Forest Project auction. It was amazing to meet so many of the faces that go with the blogs I read and the art I admire. Just to be able to walk as one of the them was a true honor. The auction was a huge success in raising double what was expected. But the efforts are not over... please be ready to purchase your copy of the Totoro Forest Project BOOK. It has tons of amazing work cover to cover and the book is a piece are art too. Much of the efforts have been donated and all profits of the book do go to the charity. 

Thanks again to all,

the book

the auction
