Happy Birthday to Edgar Allan Poe (Jan. 19, 1809 – Oct. 7, 1849).

Poe died virtually penniless. Here he is from my "Made of Money" series, created as a reminder that our best people aren't always rewarded with wealth, and that our wealthiest people aren't always our best.

It's nearly Halloween! What's spookier than losing all of your skin, then losing all of your flesh and innards? Clumsy.

ルーク・ハワード（Luke Howard：1772－1864）によって雲のかたちに、層雲や積雲と、名前がつけられ分類されてた同時代に「風」を描くことに夢中になっていたのが鈴木春信（1725-1770）や葛飾北斎（1760-1849）であれば浮世絵を「気象学」（メテオロジー）の角度から眺めることができるのではないか🐪

On unbent leaf in fairy guise,
Reflected in the water,
Beloved, admired by hearts & eyes,
Stands Annie,
Paxton’s daughter.

Is everyone looking forward to the weekend?

Hoping there's sunshine, flowers, ice cream and whisky in abundance (or whatever makes you happy!)
