Met a hero of mine...

Gurney's signature in my Dinotopia: The World Beneath book! 
Met and spoke to James Gurney on Monday.  It was strange, almost, meeting the man who pretty much illustrated my childhood, seeing him flesh and blood.  I'm dubbing this the year of Meeting Illustrators In Real Life, from Chris Payne being one of my main instructors this semester, seeing a presentation by Nathan Greeno [co-director of 'Tangled'], and hell, I'll be at Illuxcon in Pennsylvania next weekend staring up at Petar Meseldzija!  I can't believe all of this is really happening sometimes.  :]

Pfff yeah, I looked it up and couldn't believe such a big-name con is held there. Spectrum's new convention is being held right in the middle of Kansas City, so Illuxcon may have to step up their game in terms of location in the next few years. 8I
