  1. I listened to the video about Union Station Christmas. Who is the older woman who appears to be looking straight at “the camera”? Or, the artist.

  2. I LOVE NORMAN ROCKWELL ANYTHING. I HAVE ALL THE PLATES THAT HE DID, 2 OF HIS BOOKS, SAVED CALENDERS FROM THE PAST. I AM 87 YEARS OLD AND IT IS JUST TOO BAD WE DO NOT HAVE ARTISTS LIKE HIM ANYMORE.

  3. Rockwell was our greatest artist of his time. I miss his delving into the personalities in his work. If you look at one of his paintings, you are forced to digging farther than just his fabulous technique . His title of “illustrator: and not artist really bothers me. There’s Rockwell, and then there’s a Campbell soup can!!
