Rembrandt Peale, artist, was born in 1778. He produced a self portrait at the age of 13 and later used it as an example for his students of how even the most accomplished painter began as an amateur in need of improvement.

Found this 19thC tile while walking near Long Melford. Medieval architecture appealed to the Victorians who longed for pre-industrial England. Dogs in the Middle Ages herded, hunted & protected. A 9thC prayer says: 'God preserve us from the Northmen & their terrible dogs.'

Beep beep. it's the birthday of the American still life painter Raphael Peale (1774-1825). I came across him when I was making my American art series, Big Skies etc, but couldn't fit him in. Peale was especially good at oranges and lemons. So they called him 'Citrus' Peale.

I was trying to come up with something to draw, and the idea of looking out of a glass bowl into the sea appealed to me. So I drew fearless Toni hanging out in a patchy glass sculpture she found at an art exhibition during her travels

What on Earth is George Shrinks?? Can't believe I've never heard of it!

Though my early childhood was shaped by the Arthur juggernaut, the ones that appealed to me most were Wordgirl, Peg+Cat, and Martha Speaks.

It might not have been very original or even particularly well written but there was an undeniable energy to Rob Liefeld's art that appealed to early 90s teens back when everything was radical and extreme !!!
