I was friendly with his son who worked at the agency in London, we both being of similar age. I went to the house in Blackheath a couple of times and saw Eric's studio and his extensive photographic reference collection. Eric was a real gent, very kind and always interested in young artists and their work. I remember him fondly .Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17501238253039571725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-85118915734817621172020-11-09T06:30:20.267-05:002020-11-09T06:30:20.267-05:00I met Eric Earnshaw on a number of occasions, as h...I met Eric Earnshaw on a number of occasions, as he had the same Illustrators agent ( Allied Artists) as myself.

The family lived in Blackheath - I remember what a modest and unassuming person he was, absolutely charming. The family invited me to come and visit and I regret I never did.cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03059157587578103086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-39623057815029750522018-07-24T06:01:36.296-04:002018-07-24T06:01:36.296-04:00Tengo una obra original de Eric Earnshaw, una esce...Tengo una obra original de Eric Earnshaw, una escena de los años 50, posiblemente de algún viaje a la Costa del Sol, en el pueblo de Mijas, Málaga.

I love how it is presented in a year-by-year format, but one complaint would be that most of the illustrations are taken out of context - that is, the main subjects have been cropped from what was probably a horizontal, two-page layout. That being said, though, I love this book, and can't wait for the 50s volume.Stephenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16020359017572563087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-63707358172582098222010-07-24T04:04:54.294-04:002010-07-24T04:04:54.294-04:00excellent book. i just got a copy recently too.
