Arthur Gugick, 1960-2019

Hi all, I know this blog has been dormant for a long time, but I just saw a notice on Facebook that Arthur Gugick died in a car crash a few days ago. Arthur was a father and math teacher and, the reason I'm noting him here, an AFOL. You may remember him primarily for microscale recreations of world architectural landmarks, also amazing mosaics, along with other MOCs that you can see in his Flickr stream. I've featured his work here on multiple occasions, and indeed some of his last creations were ones that would have gone here as well. For instance, he said his Siem Reap was not a specific replica, but rather a general impression based on his memories. Siem Reap is the home to Angkor Wat, and many other temples and other ruins from the Khmer empire - this MOC is a microscale .
