So that’s how he did it…

Cool, Culture Add comments

Norman Rockwell created thousands of photographic studies to prepare for his paintings:

The Runaway reference photo So that’s how he did it… Runaway 300 So that’s how he did it…

I find it interesting to see what didn’t make it from photo to painting.

    I like the idea that he could paint a scene of domestic violence and people back then thought it was cute. Now it would be non-PC, so it couldn’t possibly be done.

    Ladies and gentlemen… the word of the day is coital. Adjective form of coitus.
