Later, when he was on QVC and the like, I never bought any more of his art.

However, I do have a framed Fisherman's Wharf.

It brings back a lot of old memories for me.

Otherwise, not a huge fan and I agree with you -- he made millions yet died in Los Gatos (the home of the rich) at a young age.

Oh well ...
