	Kelly Freas Biography
		Kelly Freas (pronounced "freeze") was born in 1922 in New York state.
		Artists like Freas and Finlay and dozens of others struggled mightily against impossible odds to produce beautiful art - of which we, the readers, were able to see only muddy approximations.
		It's easy to provide a litany of talents that Freas brings to his art, but besides his consummate abilities to design and render, his obvious love for the genre and his attention to detail - besides all that - are his sense of humor and his skill at depicting individuals in his art.

		Freas: I was in his office at least once a week, often on a Wednesday.
