I respect his contributions to the game and I know this is a thermonuclear take but I fuckin hate Norman Rockwell’s art. The art style. The subjects he painted. Their facial expressions. The soup. Just not at all a fan of his whole deal.
No shade at OP for sharing this, though 🙏
It would cost you nothing to walk away and keep it yourself. There are plenty that think it's brilliant. Nevermind extremely difficult to be this good at illustration.
It also cost me nothing to share my subjective opinion of an artist’s work in a respectful way, in a forum conveniently designed for discussion of this exact artist.
I don't disagree that anyone should be able to voice their opinions here, even if it is to express distaste. But let's not pretend you were doing that respectfully.
Sure, yeah, I can agree with that.
