On This Day In History
1445: Sandro Botticelli is born

Quote Of The Day
"I wear myself out trying to render the orange trees so that they're not stiff but like those I saw by Botticelli in Florence. It's a dream that won't come true."
(Berthe Morisot)

It's been wonderful watching them create their art. I was rather impressed by this dog moulded from plasticine. It's only about five centimetres long but remarkably detailed.
