@TheSpaceshipper when you see art up for auction that’s already been burned into your brain for 30 years. 😳

@nicole haha totally.

@TheSpaceshipper I did not expect to win. Now I need to figure out how to get it out of Paris. 😂

@nicole Seriously??

@TheSpaceshipper I believe this is now the single most-expensive thing I own.

The juxtaposition between Alien (my favorite film) and Jodorowsky’s Dune made it impossible to resist.

I remember a different version of this sketch from the supplements in the Alien laserdisc boxed set from the 90’s. I don’t usually give in to nostalgia, but it does carry some weight!
