First of all, I have to tell you that I find this utterly beautiful.I think your idea of using a Norman Rockwell painting as "inspiration" is a brilliant idea, partly due to the fact that I am a very big Rockwell fan, and partly because it is simply something I have not seen done before.Your likenesses of all of the characters are very well done, I could tell who almost all of them were without reading your description. Your choice of clothes and expression for each character was very tactfully done, and I particularly like the fact that Mycroft is smiling, and I think the expression used for Lestrade is just as wonderful.One thing I very much enjoy is the positions you put Sherlock and John in. Sherlock looks, even though I cannot see is face, that he is very surprised by John's sudden show of emotion, and John looks rather like he doesn't care what people think - and I like that very, very much. Their friendship is shown so beautifully here, I hardly know what to say.As for the impact of this drawing, I will admit, the moment I saw it, tears rose in my eyes. You have done amazingly well, I am sad to hear this will be your last drawing based on a Norman Rockwell painting.
