Someone asked his age when he made these films. He was in his mid-forties.

I sat transfixed to his programs as a kid in the 50s. But why did he bisect so many of his works of art?

The man was so talented and spoke better than anyone. Man, he was such a great talent!

To create a snowy scene on a white sheet of paper is trickier than one can imagine.

I remember the Christmas I received the Jon Gnagy "Learn to Draw" set, I was thrilled! In less than a week, I later studied art and became a graphic designer for a college. Jon Gnagy was the start of a wonderful career.

Thanks Jon!
