Sneak Peek {The Parsons Children}



Inspiration

Norman Rockwell used photography as subject of his paintings.

Norman Rockwell used photos, taken by a rotating cast of photographers, to make his illustrations -- and all of his models were neighbors and friends, including that little boy! Rockwell never kept it a secret, but for some reason this little fact has been neglected in recent decades. Although he may not have clicked the shutter, Rockwell directed every facet of every composition.
A new book, Norman Rockwell: Behind the Camera, reveals Rockwell's use of photographs in his illustrative process. There's also a companion exhibition at the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Mass.

Out the the OLD! In with the NEW!

I feel the need to simplify things a bit. Things can't always remain the same and change is good....right? Well, atleast for this I feel it is. Moving forward, I am taking a new approach toward my photography. With softer colors and backgrounds....no longer focused on the "vividness" of my art. 
With  a new approach comes a new blog. From now on, I will be posting on my new blog which can be located at the site you are currently at now:

Not to worry though, my old blog which includes photos and educational resources will still be available for some time. The link to my old blog will remain the same:

Please be sure to let me know what you think of my new blog!
