Thank you, I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. 🙂

I always thought it must be wonderful to have the yes of an artist. To see the complications, the details, the beauty, the richness. Artists see the world and everything in it in a different way. Nothing is missed or taken for granted. Thank you for including us in your creation. So nice to see your daughter contribute to your painting. What a lasting memory that is for her and you.

[@apollotheshire]

Thank you so much for your comment, very appreciated. Thanks for watching please share.🙂

I am reminded of the nostalgia and comfort one gets from looking at Norman Rockwell 's work. This has that same emotional feeling to it. Whomever love's the history and romance of the railroads and those mighty machines would love to have this painting. . . . wonderfully done. You do thing's with art that some of us can only imagine to do. Thanks so much for sharing!

[@apollotheshire]

This could be the nicest compliment I have ever gotten! Rockwell is my hero! Thank you!

[@candicerunyon2762]

So true! You can clearly see the similarities in the Rockwell style, but yet very much your own work . Blessings to you and your family, Apollo and your life's work.

What an incredible talent you are! I had no clue. After I have seen your passion with Apollo I knew you are special. Thank you for sharing your talents with us. Greeting from Canada.

[@apollotheshire]

Awww thanks. I’ve been a painter my whole life. My mom says I was painting before I was walking, so it doesn’t feel that special to me. 😄 it’s just life. Apollo, he’s amazing. All credit to him. 🙂 thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it.

[@DianeLee999]

Well done 👍

Thank you 👍

All that hard work shrunk down to just over 10 minutes. Amazing! I love seeing the UPRR logo - it is just great. Your painting is 4 inches longer than a standard queen size mattress :)

[@apollotheshire]

Oh wow I didn’t realize that!

[@karakrantz1391]

@@apollotheshire Yes, a standard Queen size mattress is 60x80. I am a quilter, so I know. :)
