82, stroke.
Another great one passes. I used to have his “Snow Warrior” painted on my van in high school.
Damn. Loved his stuff back in the '80s.
Man, Frank had an imagination! Scantily clad beautiful women-surrounded by monsters!
The picture of him in February with his family looks like he was well-loved.
His artwork inspired an entire generation, and anyone who worked on Little Annie Fanny is all right in my book.
…and anyone who goes by **Gagundathar **and supports Frazetta probably knows what they are talking about. 
I was a huge fan as a teen - he took comic book/fantasy art to an extreme in the 70’s. I had a book of his paintings/posters and also had the Snow Warrior on my wall…
Just over a month ago in the thread Show Us Your (Monitor) Wallpaper I mentioned Frank in this post and I’m going to find one of his pictures for my wallpaper out of true respect for his gifts.
Interesting comment from the NY Times blog:
I loved his stuff. 
Yeah, but they don’t get along with each other. Even before Frank died, his kids were apparently already squabbling over his assets:
Frank Frazetta’s son breaks into father’s museum using backhoe, attempts to take $20 million in paintings
Anyone remember the moment in The Jerk, when we are getting a visual tour of Steve Martin’s monumentally tasteless mansion…and we see a Frazetta painting on the wall? Poor Frank. No respect.
Will he have a Viking funeral?
Wherever he is, I hope he’s surrounded by buxum, broad-hipped women.
well this sucks
:mad:
And as few monsters as possible.
I never had any Frazetta posters or anything, but his was the kind of art that an SF/Fantasy fan of the '70s and '80s just knew, and could recognize even if he couldn’t name the artist. A style. Seemed like just a natural part of the 'zines-and-paperback-covers environment. And you didn’t consider at the time that it was a style somebody had to invent.
National Lampoon in the 70s described the genre as “Tits & Lizards”.
RIP, Frank. Loved your stuff.
He contributed a Tarzan gag to Mad magazine, too. And did illustration of Battlestar Galactica (the original) that showed up in TV guide.
Loved his stuff. Even though his warrior driving a car with polar bears didn’t actually have any reins. If you’re driving polar bears, you should need reins.
And I loved Fire and Ice.
A Frazetta Warrior does not need reins. He simply reigns, in place, and the bears drive themselves forwards. For he has innate nobility, cruelty, and masculinity etched into his very brow.
God, that was gorgeous, lush, unforgiving art. Every brushstroke, every line had a place.
It’s sad he’s dead, but he will not be forgotten, as long as Conan can raise his sword, and as long as metal can raise an axe.
My teen-aged boner salutes him and his body (heh) of work. Farewell!
