Master technical illustrator David Kimble makes a cameo in this mini-documentary about Marfa, Texas. This has me wishing for a full-length documentary on the prolific artist himself.

This is great to see Kimble in Texas. Back in the day I went to his studio in Glendale, CA to meet him and discuss possible work. When I walked in it was more of a warehouse than a studio with expensive motorcycles scattered among stacks of papers and antiques shoulder high. I found his desk at the back carved out in a space large enough just for him to work. He was pretty critical of my work giving me a verbal engineering test on the spot. I didn’t do so well I fear. He rolled up a Corvette poster and said to come back when I learned a thing or two. A totally great experience!

Wow, that sounds utterly humbling and amazing at the same time.
that’s awesome Jim. Marfa looks like a nice place.
Would love to see a documentary on the master illustrators.
Or if Escape from Illustration Island or one of the other illustration podcasts that exist now would interview a technical illustrator for once that would be great.
Actually, I’ve been thinking a podcaster should interview James, Clint, etc. contributors about creating this site as well as about technical illustration.
Thanks for the post.
More Kimble, please! I’ve been amazed by his work for years.
