Frank Frazetta vs Norman Rockwell

[version]

I've just realised what I thought was a famous Rockwell was by a guy called Grant Wood and I didn't actually know what Rockwell's stuff looked like.

This ones pretty different for him

Some of his are more cartoonish than others. There are a few that remind me of Schiele. Something about the angles and blotchy skin.

Ya your right about the schiele thing. I was trying to put my thumb on it but its something about the way they render highlights on their characters. In rockwells stuff it gives it this feel that sometimes you could reach out and pluck them right off the page

These are interesting departures for him

Apparently this photo of J-Lo was inspired by Frazetta.
