Okay, that Frazetta story is pitiful. And I would feel that way even if I wasn’t a HUGE Frazetta fan. I have often wondered over the last few months how Frank Sr. is holding up after the death of his wife Ellie. Even a casual observer could watch Painting with Fire and realize just how much she was his life. And now he’s dealing with his children fighting over his work and now trying to steal it. How awful for him.
