Excuse my annoyingly happy grin, but wow, my sister and I just acquired these (very) early works by my grandfather, Frank Frazetta. He painted these when he was 10! 10!!! Insane.
“My women are beautiful, so what? I truly love and adore women. I don’t suggest they are weak or wimpy or that they are being taken advantage of.”
- Frank Frazetta (1995)

My grandfather would have been 95 years old today. Although he is not with me any longer, I feel his presence stronger than ever. I feel his spirit guiding me. I’ve written about my memories with my grandfather at length, and I feel so blessed to have had that time with him here
My grandfather’s palette 🎨 is on display at the Frazetta Museum among many other personal items such as the last art desk he used and his personal paint brush collection.
Some of the original works on display include
Death Dealer II
Dark Kingdom
Self Portrait
Neanderthals
Finally said farewell to TikTok today. This is the second time they’ve permanently banned our Frazetta account for community violations. It’s ART. Have their guidelines changed? I’ve won many appeals. Not this time. It was probably for the best. 🌪️🌪️🌪️

Truly a dream come true to have a cover by Bill Sienkiewicz for our new Death Dealer series. The first time I saw Bill’s work was on the album cover for Kid Cudi’s Man on the Moon: The End of Day - I was head over heels.
During his time at the Brooklyn Academy of Fine Arts, around 1942-1945, my grandfather, Frank Frazetta, sketched Michelangelo's Pietà. He signed it twice, once as "Fritz" and once as "Frazetta."
Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing. - Robert E Howard
I’m incredibly grateful to Dian Hanson and Benedikt Taschen for bringing The Fantastic Worlds of Frank Frazetta to the world. I wish my grandpa was here for this. He would have been so proud of his achievements. Thank you to his fans for keeping his legacy fueled by your passion.
