They're coming thick and fast at the moment 
I remember watching TOny on TV as a nipper myself and he was such an innovator with his work.
Sadly missed.

Wow... that's a name I've not heard in years.
Like so many we've seen fall this past year, he too will be missed but hopefully remembered.

A great shame, but he'll live on in our memories. Somewhere, I still have two books on drawing that he wrote. Part of my enthusiasm for art defiitely came from him, and my mother encouraged that.
In spite of that, I don't think I ever sent a picture in to the Gallery. I seem to recall that I thought that, if I liked a picture enough to submit it, I didn't want to lose it (they always said that they couldn't return the art that was sent in).
While most people are respectful when a celebrity passes, you often get the odd snide comment posted on message boards and forums. I wonder if anyone could possibly have a bad word to say about Tony. He must have inspired two generations or budding artists, and always came across as both talented and kind.

Your reality, sir, is lies and balderdash, and I'm delighted to say that I have no grasp of it whatsoever.

Lol. I would agree with you but I sorta realized this 8 years ago we here in America elected Bush. I couldnt vote till last year and by God I was there nearly and hour before polls opened. And I still had to wait. But hey I was able to do some magic for the guys in line so yea.
I'm not sure what the point I was trying to make was
