February 18, 1775: British watercolourist and etcher Thomas Girtin is born.

At a time when oil painting was the norm, Girtin helped to establish watercolour as a reputable and desirable medium.

Couldn't make it up to Norham Castle in Northumberland last year (for reasons that escape me now) so thought I'd essay my first watercolour since I was nine and paint it from memory. Yes, it's a bit shonky - but if I sign it 'Picasso,' I reckon I can get £100+ for it on eBay.
