Good illustrator without doubt. Obviously, in my opinion, the kind of illustration, even when it is done well, as in this case, does not pretend to compete with the painting (with a capital P). The art of illustrations of popular genre, due to its characteristic of having to arouse sensations in a simple wide audience, in my opinion, can not be considered art with a capital A.

What you have hinted about ¾ of the art, it is right.
In the figurative arts in general, considering namely even the applied arts, we fall under a wide variety of techniques, and the genre illustrative occupies a vast field. Many great artists, during their career, they have also devoted some time to the illustrations by means litografiee and posters, but in an artistic manner; it would be enough to think about Toulouse Lautrec, Pierre Bonnard, the avant-garde artists of the early twentieth century, Klimt and the Secessionists Austrians. But clearly,
lithographic illustration, which is produced in a large number of exemplary, even if done by a great artist, certainly has a value, but it is much less of a painting by the same artist.

Nostalgic: captures an “ERA” of life and what we felt, seen, and experienced. Plays to the appetite of the beholder, and gives freedom of thought to enjoy.

Not bad. The taste and beauty are subjective things. And then there’s also the saying that ‘it is beautiful which pleases’, therefore, it is always good to have in mind that the variety satisfies always a bit all tastes.
The works of the illustrators look at them with pleasure, especially when they communicate optimism and serenity, even if those feelings do not always correspond to reality. Let’s say that they propose something that looks a lot like to dreams and desires felt by the most people. The paintings engaged, for example, is not always are accessible to the majority of people, because in almost cases all contain the moods of performing artists. In short, the painting, especially the modern one, it is often the externalization of the unconscious of the artists. For this, in my opinion, the illustrations of the common feelings do well to all. Too psicology does bad to the head
