My question is: why is your son wearing an apron while supposedly studying law? (is this addressed somewhere else? If so, apologies!)


If you look at the original, the law student has an apron on also.

Well done Anita! Yea, cloning is an art. No biggie though, it didn't change the story. Congratulations, it truly is a Norman Rockwell piece.

Your son is quite handsome, Anita!

Very Rockwellesque.

I really like this one, but in looking at it again, something strange is going on with his pants leg. Were you trying to clone something?

Very well done, Anita, is your youngest studying law in Perth or elsewhere? Actually looking at the books he must be in the US.

Wonderful image, very Rockwellian. IMO way too much white at the top, but I suppose you have to leave room for the "Saturday Evening Post" :-)
