I met Al at a convention in Wichita and he is such a wonderful person and a great personality. He's a very interesting personality. Its really nice that there are parts of the moon in his paintings.

Alan Bean is great! He is so down to Earth (for a man that has walked on the moon!) and is such an inspiration to young people, whether they want to explore far away places, study aeronautics, or pursue art, he is inspiring them in an incredibly productive way.

It's so amazing to see this!! I'm one of his distant cousins so this is very cool. I want to meet him someday. Hopefully at a family reunion. Take care Alan

These paintings are not only great pieces of art but of course history. I think only museum should purchase them, so that they can be seen and experienced by all. An amazing story. From one artist to another.
