Storybook Land in Paint

Pretend you are sailing past the Snow White area of Storybook Land. This is what you would see, more or less, back in 1958 or thereabouts. It’s my newest painting, the second in what is now the Storybook Land Series. It is also the second in my 2011 year of Disney paintings. Have a look! Comments much appreciated… especially the positive ones! hehe!

Thank you to Major Pepperidge for snapping me out of my blog slackerdom! My apologies to everyone who stops by hoping to see an update. This summer has been a busy one, but I will do my utmost to wipe the paint off of my hands and update the blog at least once a week again!
We continue with this article/photo/thing from a special issue of Life magazine, December 22, 1958. It's a really timeless shot. It looks like it could be from any year. Timeless magic!
