Loved his work!! He will certainly be missed, but he is now painting for the Angels, and our Lord.

Did anyone else see the movie-"the Christmas Cottage?" it was on Netflix in Dec. and was based on his early years when he was in college when he started painting with light. It was really good. So sad that he's gone, happy that he's in heaven.

He really had an eye and talent. Something confuses me tho - the obit said he died of "natural causes" but he was only 54!! Has anyone heard anything else on this? Usually - maybe ALL the time, an autopsy was done on anyone passing younger than - what - 70??

His paintings are awesome, but have you read his books, they pretty uplifting to. You have to search at the library,there is a whole series. I love his writing as much as i do his paintings
