Description

James Doohan 1920-2005 Goodbye, Scotty. "One to beam up." Painter and Wacom tablet. Starfield created with Universe. Very sad, I thought this would help, but it didn't. I'm glad I did it, anyway. I was blessed to have a conversation with Mr. Doohan once in Chattanooga for about 30 minutes after a autograph session at an electronics store, while he was waiting for a Limo to take him to a Sci-fi Con. He was promoting Star Trek II, dressed like this and was very gracious to a silly fan. Thanks for looking, John

If you could sell the talent that obviously oozes from your very pores, you'd be a rich man in no time. A wonderful portrait of a nice man and a very good actor.

Well, it beats being stuck in a transporter buffer for 85 years... Thanks, John. I met him in Baltimore twenty years or so ago. One of the most personable of the original bridge crew, if a little ticked--rightly, I think--that $$people put words in his mouth without checking to see if they were appropriate. His hand startled me when we shook!

What a wonderful piece! I also got to hobknob for a day with one of the cast in person. George Takei. I did a sketch of him the night before a Sci-fi Con here at home. He signed it and the magazine that I used to sketch from. To coin two phrases into one... Live long and prosper. Make it so. ;-D
