Ducky Williams was on our cruise this past Agusut 21st. I won one of his paintings that was on the Silent Auction during our cruise. Ducky was on our dinner rotation and sat at the table next to ours in Animator's Palate. We saw him many times drawing pictures during dinner. We attended his talk and also his drawing class during our cruise, it was also a pleasure of ours to meet him as well.

Im in the oceanear lab 10-12's and we had a class to do that too (learn how to draw Donald..but he was to late I dont know the whole story...)

He is a very kind man.. As you can tell Tinkerbell is my favorite!! I asked Mr. Williams if he could draw me Tinkerbell but he was to busy so he said he would cacth up to me later. I saw him on deck 4 in the shop "Treasure Kecth" buying a few things.

Ducky told us he sails about 5 times a year on DCL and said half his salary goes back to Disney in purchases that he makes!!!

I agree, Mr. Williams was wonderful. He even showed up early for our autograph signing and started signing right away. It was very cool because everyone on the San Juan cruise got a lithograph that he designed and then we were able to have him sign it. He is a very nice man. Kim

Here are the two lithos that we got on our 8-21-04 cruise. The top litho is the one that we won during the Silent Auction and the bottom litho is the one that was given out to every cabin during the special San Juan and Antigua cruises. My DW and I just got back from A.C. Moore where we had the bottom litho framed.

And here is a photo of Ducky Williams during the autograph session on the Magic.

Ducky Williams was on our cruise back in May 2002. We went to his lecture because our middle ds loves to draw. It was very interesting and we all enjoyed seeing him and how he got started.

We love him too!
We had the pleasure of sailing with him on the Magic a while back. We attended both of his talks, and he very kindly did a drawing of Figment for me. I also have one of his lithos hanging in a spot of honor
If you happen to be on a cruise when he is the guest speaker, you are in for a treat. Don't miss his talks! He is so talented and makes it look so effortless.
