For Monty

i posted this on twitter but wasn't fully able to say what i wanted so here goes
he inspired me to create so much and do so much.  when others were telling me to stop he was saying keep going.  i started going to the art institute to be an animator, it was my dream to just meet him once and tell him how much i loved what he did, how awesome he was, with out him i never would have pursued art, i probably would have quit drawing all together.  i owe him a lot, i promise to keep at my dream and become an animator at roosterteeth

and one other thing i want to get off my chest, for those of you who tell me "why are you sad? you didn't even know him." can shove it.  when someone inspires you, you have every right the feel however you want.  its true i never got to meet him but the connection i felt through the emotion of his work and the drive and all the advice he gave, he seemed more like a friend then some of the people i see everyday
