I also replied to you at Flickr - but this certainly brings back memories of summer holidays at my grandparents place. <BR/><BR/>I don't remember the show, but I definately had the kit - and that book. Thanks so much for posting this!<BR/><BR/>That's the only time I ever worked with charcoal, as it turns out...and the only time I ever had a stump :) My "artistic career" pretty much ground to a halt after that (though I kept doodling).Sophie_vfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02049108093977249683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-58649522662989911462007-05-19T19:23:00.000-05:002007-05-19T19:23:00.000-05:00oh, yes, Linda - the stump!!

I loved that thing and used it all the time!<BR/><BR/>Meanwhile, "soulcomfort", I am 55+, so we truly are the same age...<BR/><BR/>And yes, I think this book came in a kit so that you could do lots o'art with it! What a fun thing to remember this!! Please do stay in touch! That tv show was magic for me as well!starrgirl's worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12359736825119513558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-70419241360837979432007-05-19T12:28:00.000-05:002007-05-19T12:28:00.000-05:00I am so glad some other people remember him and ha...I am so glad some other people remember him and have that same warm spot in their artistic heart that I do. I drew several of the pictures and did the bridge one, also. :) (BTW, starrgirl, I am 56 years old.) <BR/><BR/>I didn't even remember that the book came in a kit. But I could have gotten it in a kit, that's for sure. I sure do remember his TV show, tho! To me, it seemed magical the way he drew and he inspired me to draw and be creative.

I don't think I ever saw his tv show.

Of course I drew this picture - and the one of the bridge, too! Jon was my dream!! Thankfully, I've gone on to do lots more and am a happy, successful artist, but Jon Gnagy was the start of it all for me!! Thanks for showing this ~ I don't have that book any more and wish I did!!starrgirl's worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12359736825119513558noreply@blogger.com
