Bill, as much as I enjoyed looking at this tribute painting, Scott would have loved it. Is this painting going to be at the movie house in Fullerton along with his Fedora hat?
Thanks for the kind words.
This image is actually a fully digital creation. I found this pic of Scott with a baby genet on his shoulder from a bunch of pics he had sent me after his African Expedition – it just seemed perfect for the collage with two of his favorite cryptids.
But certainly, if the Norman family approves, the Movie House can take this file and print it as a framed artwork in Scott’s honor.
One could only wish that perhaps someday the BBC will see fit to produce the Mokele Mbembe documentary they filmed with Scott, John Kirk and Bill Gibbons. According to Scott, the BBC shot about 24 Mini-DV tapes while on expedition.

Great graphic design work Bill. I really want to get a print of the picture to hang it in my house. You really captured Scott in this picture.
I got fairly close to Scott the last couple of years. He was a marvelous friend. He was an upbeat, competent, and passionate researcher. Mix all that with a strong physical frame and deep Christian humility and you begin to have a description of Scott Norman. The day before he saw the possible pteranodon we hiked up a ridge to the top of a small mountain. Scott was a very strong man, that is why his death was so unexpected. The morning after his 2 AM sighting, I documented everything he saw in a formal written interview questionnaire. Scott even sketched the outline of the creature for us.
Bill, if you would like, I can scan and send you a copy of the sketch along with the interview data. Maybe you could use your artistic talent and draw or design a nice picture of what Scott saw based on this information. Just a thought.
You have done a wonderful and fitting work to honor our friend brother, and fellow researcher.
