An assortment to Norman Rockwell pictures from my calendar.
I remember the pain of listening to my brother when he got his first guitar too!!
Norman Rockwell had a way of portraying everyday things in a way that it was rather classical.
Oh my, how I remember the sheer fun and fright of sledding a steep slope.....

The prompt picture reminded me of Rockwell too. These are wonderful pictures.
ReplyDeleteThese are so perfect, and my kind of artist. He sure captured life at it's best, no matter what the subject.
ReplyDeleteClever twist! Like Karen, I also appreciate the way Rockwell captured everyday subjects in everyday activities.
ReplyDeleteLovely illustrations and a different way of interpreting the prompt.
ReplyDeleteI've always loved Norman Rockwell's paintings. He must have truly loved life in all its forms because he certainly caught every form in his artistic endeavors. Nice post!
ReplyDeleteSome people are very talented. Wonderful pictures.
ReplyDeleteOur second dose of Rockwell this week. I must look him up. His work is great fun it seems.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in art college a Rockwell show came to San Francisco. I couldn't wait to see it, but classmates turned their nose up in disgust. He was after all just an "illustrator." I'm sure few of them ever gained even one iota of the success that he did. I'm glad to see that these days illustrators are given the credit they were always due.
ReplyDeleteIt's a gift that's for sure.
DeleteNice spin on the theme.
ReplyDeleteRockwell will always be a classic!!
It was those genuine feelings he invoked in his illustrations
that we can all relate to somehow.
