"If you must economize, be stingy with your wife, your clothes, your food, but never on what will make your pictures better. This may sound almost immoral but in the end if you make better pictures you will make more money and then you can enjoy the food and the clothes and buy your wife a mink coat."

-Norman Rockwell

I suppose if I could meet anyone,  Norm would be at the top of my list.

knick knacks

I had some time today to do a sketch of my folks' living room. My mom is a master decorator so I tried to capture all the detail she puts into the house. I hope it does her work justice.

happy new year,
