1969 | NORMAN ROCKWELL | SPRING FLOWERS |

1969 | Norman Rockwell | Spring Flowers | DETAIL
Oil On Canvas | McCall's magazine |


“I bought an oversized book of Rockwell paintings and wore down the pages showing it to Mike, Lawrence, Edwin, Joel, and anyone else who would look. This was the advertising I wanted! I loved the minutiae. I loved the small-town flavor. And I especially loved the detail in the clothing he used: the saddle shoes, the tartan skirts, the wool sweaters, the military uniforms, the quilts. ”
