My Condolences

A great lost to the industry. Not just for is artwork whether you liked it or not, but a great guy. I feel honored that I've meet him many times in the past.

Godspeed Michael, you will be missed.

37-years-old

I'm not familiar with this artist, but what I've seen of his work in a few article I read it's amazing. The guy was only 37-years-old. Way to young! As they say live everyday as it was your last and don't put off your dreams. Although his career was a short one Mr. Turner pursued his passion.
