Norman Rockwell was one of the greatest American artist of all time. He manages to capture the true spirit & essence of the very fabric of American society in progress. There is a certain amount of playfulness in the characters that he paints. He is also a patriot & a very á talented & skilful painter. I feel privileged to have the opportunity to see & share his lovely paintings.

Fun publicity shot giving the impression Rockwell worked from life. He carefully photographed the models, then projected and traced onto the canvas.

If what you're saying is true, I don't I have a problem with working from a photogragh. i do have a problem with tracing and the dishonesty.
