They are artfully hidden behind logs, boulders, panthers, fading into the mist, underwater, etc., etc. Not disputing his fantastic ability at drawing and painting women by any stretch, but if you have a chance to view a number of his paintings together, check it out for yourself!Gerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12361836428885324631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752841194995687278.post-68525865821868247482011-10-14T00:00:48.385-05:002011-10-14T00:00:48.385-05:00still, at least I didn't make it all up.still, at least I didn't make it all up.Eddie Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02492020671613766729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752841194995687278.post-71270712897834844182011-10-13T23:59:16.259-05:002011-10-13T23:59:16.259-05:00thanks.

The kids in Marvel editorial these days hate big hands/feet if they've never heard of you, you know. Anyway, Craig cites the critique as one of top-five best pieces of advice he's received in his career.Milo Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06720405599066763805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752841194995687278.post-49739072709826486382011-10-13T16:46:01.357-05:002011-10-13T16:46:01.357-05:00Caniff also shrinks her waistline and increases he...Caniff also shrinks her waistline and increases her bust size while he's at it. Sharp illustration, though.<br /><br />This all connects in some way to foot binding and the wearing of high heels in the first place (the opposite side of the coin that exaggerates a man's muscles in drawings and puts shoulder pads in their jackets)...<br /><br />Michael AvolioMichael Avoliohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03438405541305952042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752841194995687278.post-22772208605163291072011-10-13T00:21:08.787-05:002011-10-13T00:21:08.787-05:00I'm trying to figure out if that is straight o...I'm trying to figure out if that is straight or sarcastic... let me know.Eddie Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02492020671613766729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752841194995687278.post-80516842795814154352011-10-13T00:17:03.332-05:002011-10-13T00:17:03.332-05:00Wow, that's a great way to review the art of a...Wow, that's a great way to review the art of a book.AJAnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752841194995687278.post-19983593282404296742011-10-12T16:24:33.769-05:002011-10-12T16:24:33.769-05:00The very excellent james Sturm just emailed to cla...The very excellent james Sturm just emailed to clarify:<br /><br />Eddie—<br /><br />I was referring to a specific drawing for a project Craig and I were working on together at the time. Those feet he drew for that were distractingly large. Other than that example I have no problem with the way Craig draws feet—or anything else for that matter.<br /><br />J<br /><br />James is one of the important people in comics. Hope he didn't see my remark as anything other than friendly joshing.Eddie Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02492020671613766729noreply@blogger.com
