THE ROADBLOCK

NORMAN ROCKWELL STUDIED IN HIGH SCHOOL THROUGH HIS SOPHOMORE YEAR. AFTER THAT HE DROPPED OUT TO ATTEND THE NATIONAL SCHOOL OF DESIGN. AFTER ONE YEAR THERE HE OPTED FOR THE ART STUDENTS LEAGUE. FROM THERE, HE BEGAN HIS PROFESSIONAL CAREER.

Norman Rockwell can be said to part of the realism movement. However his style does not really fit in with this movement. A better description of his art style can be found in a quote from him. He said, “I don’t want to paint for the few who can see a canvas in a museum, for I believe that in a democracy art belongs to the people. I want my pictures to be published.” Rockwell’s art had to be understandable to millions of people and it had to conform to the limits of spaces and deadlines.

More than anyone else, Rockwell’s influence comes from his father. It was his father who, as a Sunday painter, inspired his son to first start painting. This was the spark that would ignite a legendary career.
