Can you believe that the subject in this painting – done in Dec 1960 – is now the father of 10, grandfather of six with three more coming. Must have been the corn flakes! This picture is a classic in the Slack family and such a great painting.

This painting is great. I always loved looking at it, and still do. It definitely has the morning feel from the great capture of the lighting. I can remember loving to look at the detail in the cereal box, the wallpaper, my dad’s face, the glass of milk, and my dad’s pajamas. Thanks so much for painting this for my dad. We have all loved it.

I love this! It’s nice to see it again, after so many years. Wow, it’s still just as amazing! It takes me right to Grandmuzzie’s kitchen.

I forgot about this painting! It is so fun. I remember thinking you should turn it in to Kellogs!

This is a painting I haven’t seen for a long time, but I thought it was magic when you painted it, and still do!

I think this painting is universal and could bring back childhood memories to anyone. I love how you used color to portray the light coming in from the window. It is easy to see exactly when this painting takes place, not only by the breakfast cereal but by the light in the room.
