Description

The Art of Norman Rockwell, Norman Percevel Rockwell (February 3, 1894 – November 8, 1978) was an American painter and illustrator. His works have a broad popular appeal in the United States for their reflection of American culture. Introduction, The Art Students League, teachers of Norman Rockwell, The Early Works, The Boy Scouts of America Illustrations, The Art of Norman Rockwell, 1920’s, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, The Models of Norman Rockwell, The Art of Norman Rockwell, 1930’s, The Four Freedoms, The Art of Norman Rockwell, 1940’s, Willie Gillis Series, Political Portraits, Celebrity Portraits, Christmas and Santa Clause, The Art of Norman Rockwell, 1950’s, Illustrations for Coca-Cola, The Art of Norman Rockwell, 1960’s, Awakening of Social Consciousness. In 1915, the Rockwell family moved from the city to the town of New Rochelle, New York. It was there that he shared a studio with Clyde Forsythe, a cartoonist for the Saturday Evening Post magazine. With Forsythe’s connections, Rockwell was able to get one of his paintings used for the May 1916 cover of Saturday Evening Post called “Mother’s Day Off”. Rockwell went on to have eight more covers within the next twelve months – for a young man of only 22 years old Rockwell was doing very well! Some of the most iconic works of Norman Rockwell were produced for the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) magazine Boys' Life, and other youth publications. Rockwell had a 64-year relationship with the Boy Scouts of America (BSA), during which he produced covers for their publication Boys' Life, calendars, and other illustrations.

I teach lecture courses and studios as I wish they would have been taught to me. Much of the graphic material in my lectures is taken or generated first hand directly by me on site. I teach to learn. I teach subjects as I wish they were taught to me. The Mission Statement. Education is a tool for the improvement of successive generations. I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand. Confucius

This course is designed under the premise that humans should be taught in a way that is modeled after the educational patterns of evolution.

The design, development and application of educational systems based on the educational principles of evolution generates a philosophy and methodology of education in synchrony with the evolutionary education system that is firmly and deeply rooted in each of us.

Education for evolution is an educational system designed to help propel humans forward in the natural course of evolution. The purpose of education for evolution is to enhance and strengthen the natural evolutionary process of humans through the mechanism of education. The means to achieve this objective is the design of a curricula based on the same educational techniques and strategies used by natural evolution, enhanced and guided by the application of conscious educational decisions.

I also teach a course on Rockwell. But this was merely a review of paintings without much context about Rockwell's life or much analysis of his artwork. The background music was distracting. The teacher read his PowerPoint slides. Very sophomoric presentation. The chapters just end; there is no conclusion or summary point. He disagrees with those who don't consider Rockwell's work art but never addresses this debate. He doesn't talk about the change in Rockwell's work after he moved to Vermont in 1939 or his use of non-professional models from Arlington. There's no discussion of his switch to photography or how he composed his pictures from multitudes of photographs. There's no substance here. It's a slide show of pictures with minimal commentary. Very disappointing considering he's an art professor.
