He went on to say that George Lucas gave it to him when he delivered the original poster art for Episode III. And said that Lucas said, this is Vader bowing to you. 🙏

He showed me this other little treasure. A 10” x 10” statue of Vader, kneeling.

(Modeled after that moment in TESB where he bows to the Emperor hologram.)

At one point, I look over and just sitting there on his old Mac Pro tower is a Lightsaber hilt. I ask Drew about it, turns out it was an actual @markhamillofficial.bsky.social Luke Skywalker prop.

Through a mutual friend, I had the chance to visit Drew Struzan at his studio in 2009. Gentle-hearted, soft spoken, and kind. He took time to show me around and let me see what he was working on. I’ll never forget it!

Jim Henson would've been 89 years old today. Commemorate his life and legacy by celebrating creativity, diversity, imagination, peace, and just plain silliness.

Walk with me a bit while I talk about Jim and his work--and leave your comments about what he means to you.

Right this way. /1

This is one of my very favorite images, as it features characters performed by Jim Henson throughout his life holding photos (or, in the case of Ernie, drawings) of him at about the period he was performing the character. Among the Muppets shown: Cantus, Dr. Teeth, the Swedish Chef, Sam, Link Hogthrob, Ernie, Kermit (two iterations), and Guy Smiley.

Sure, he’s old, but he’s a pretty contented little guy! All good in every other respect.

That first underground world, in particular!

I wondered if this was happening for others! Sorry to hear that. My son (9) feels motion sick watching someone else play but feels fine when he plays.

10yrs ago at NYCC, I met some amazing artists & never forgot their work. I’ve finally been able to fulfill a promise to myself to finally own a piece of their magic.

Cory Godbey @corygodbey.bsky.social is an incredible artist & just lovely. His book “Visions of Whence” is GORGEOUS, btw. Thank you!!
