Ms. Rockwell uses a technique known as "from photo" to create her masterpieces. For her oil painting this typically involves a professional photo shoot at her studio, where several photographs are taken to give her a clear picture of the subject's personality and spirit. For her charcoal drawings, it is customary for her to use your favorite snapshots for reference. The photographs are used solely as a guide; at no point are the photographs painted over or projected onto the canvas, or in the case of charcoal drawings, onto paper.
