This is a lovely capture of that time period. Really takes me back. I am captivated by your light touch and your reality. Nice work John, DiannaAnonymous Guest 04 Dec 2013
Great job John! You struck a chord deep within me. You bring back excellent memories of a time long gone but so much a part of my being. How I wish to go there and live the life. You achieved what art is truly meant to achieve beyond a great painting you brought out a social awareness! That is truly art, JoeZejnebAT 25 Oct 2013
Such a lovely, nostalgic painting. Great use of colors and I really like how detailed this piece is.Vernonette Gaddy 14 Oct 2013
A brilliantly created 'picture-book' like painting of nostalgic America. Norman Rockwell would certainly approve of your idyllic painting John. :)Sigridur Bachmann 13 Oct 2013
