Mostyn Art

I am a day late but I actually wanted to think about this. Ralph McQuarrie died this week. His paintings were amazing and as a kid, I loved looking at them in all of the Star Wars books I owned. I even have a poster of Luke and Vader in a lightsaber duel. My students ask why it looks so different that the real thing. Now that I have done the concept work for my own project, I appreciate even more what he did. I hope to meet him in heaven some day so I can thank him.
