Norman Rockwell – Southern Justice

I KNOW, RIGHT?!  I’ve been getting into Norman Rockwell lately – his draftsmanship is insane.  I’d always avoided him just because I didn’t dig the americana propoganda sorta themes and the caricaturization. Recently I revisited some more well-known pieces to investigate his technical skills and stumbled across this. Take off that signature in the corner and I’d never have guessed. I’d also never have guessed I’d be getting really into Norman Rockwell, either.

Another thing I recently realized: making this a ‘just my art stuff’ blog would be dumb, and also that is what a portfolio is for, and I should put one of those together.

In the meanwhile, I present to you great stuff on the internet, some of which I’m sure you’ve already seen, since you spend too much time on the internet:

• Mean vs. Real

• The Morning News galleries are GREAT, especially ‘Foreclosed‘.

• 100 Abandoned Houses

• Compare/Contrast

• Academy Award Winning Trailer - CLICK ON THIS. So good!

• Arthur Russell : That’s Us / Wild Combination (via)

• Neil Diamond - Soolaimon (via)

I should’ve credited some of these but forgot where I got ‘em, which isn’t really fair of me. Next time.
