    Oh man it is so nice to see your work again. I recently got Color and Light and love it. Your videos and the book both show an extreme passion for art. Something I used to have and am trying to jump start again. The world is lucky to have your art in it.

    I was recently gifted a beginners set of oil paints and then for christmas received your book Color and Light. The person who gave it to me had no idea that you were the creator of Dinotopia.
    Dinotopia was a cornerstone of my childhood. A world i wanted to live in and felt like i could when i turned through the pages. So imagine my joy at being given these two gifts that are so connected to it!
    The third gift has been you James. Your work has been a gift in my life and you are a gift to so many. I cannot wait to read your other books and learn from your videos!
    Thank you, from myself and on behalf of all of the people like me who get to enjoy everything you have created!

    Thanks YT algorithm and thanks James Gurney. I’ve loved Dinotopia for 30+ years. One of my favorite books as a kid and still today. Just bought a fresh copy for my a five year old daughter who’s a dino nut. She loves it.

    This was a beautiful video! By the way James, you have my utmost gratitude for the recent newsletter about photographing your art. Not only did it offer some helpful tips that I can use, but you helped my spouse and I finally find the camera of our dreams. That is, a DSLR that has properly functioning manual adjustments along with the usual automatic settings. We used your link and the camera arrived yesterday. We're thrilled with it. We never needed the latest, greatest, but this perfectly met our needs and you're the first person who was able to point us in the right direction. Thanks again and happy holidays!

    Good lord! You are comprehensive and explain things in such an accessible way! The only thing that I always wonder about is, "are you ever going to return to Dinotopia and give us some painting lessons from there?"
    In fact, a friend of mine says he also found a badly worn journal in an antique shop. He's sent me a few photos and from what I've seen, it makes me wonder if maybe you'd be better equipped to deal with what's inside.
    ALWAYS love your videos 👌🦕🤞😋🤙

    James, as an admirer of your work, I don't want to be annoying, but maybe I would be if I told you to take more care of your eyes and skin.
    It's not good to look at the reflection of light in the water and your skin appears to be quite red.
