Welcome to week 142 of the thread the featuring artists this week ar : Adam Hargreaves and Cecil Charles Windsor Aldin . I will ope the week with my introduction to Adan Hargreaves and on Wednesday Jenny will presents her chosen artist Cecil Charles Windsor Aldin . Adam Hargreaves b1963 is an English author and illustrator who when not writing or creating illustrations is a very good artist . Adam is the son of Roger Hargreaves the creator of the Mr Men series of children’s books. Adam was following a career in farming when his father died and took on the business and continued to produce tbd Mr Men series , which hie still illustrates and writes despite having sold the rights ton publishing company. He is credited with give in his father the inspiration to write and illustrate the books as at the age of eight he asked “ What does a tickle look like “. I became aware of his painting whist researching for this thread but didn’t realise that he was the artist behind the Mr Men books until I was looking at information about his work and life. I will say I was quite shocked but really impressed with his landscape , I will admit to not being very keen on the books despite having read many to my children and grandchildren. There is a biography on Wikipedia, fro which I took some information. I hope you enjoy my selection of his artwork and I leave you to make your decision on his work as I’m just a tad biased having enjoyed then for the past couple of weeks.I had no idea Adam Hargreaves was behind both the Mr Men books and those landscapes — what a contrast! The woodland scenes especially are beautifully handled, and it’s fascinating to see such a different side of an illustrator many of us associate only with children’s books.And of course win.casino .
