Art Appreciation

I hadn't realized that today would have been Norman Rockwell's birthday. Thank you, Google, for bringing that to my attention with the sweet piece of art on your page today.

I've admired Norman Rockwell's work ever since I was just a little girl. I had spent a lot of time with my grandparents growing up, and they had pieces all over the house. I love them because they are of every day images with, sometimes, a bit of humor portrayed in them. They are real, and true, and full of emotion. That is what I love most about them.

There are so many that I adore, but here are some of my favourites:

This one because it makes me wonder.


This one because it makes me giggle.


So does this one.


This one makes me think of mom....


This one makes me go "awwwwww" :)


Thank you for all the smiles, Mr. Rockwell!

Much Love!!
