Anton Peick.

Artist born at the end of the 1800s created beautiful illustrations depicting every day life. I used his pictures for my 3 dimension decoupage crafts.

Dutch Painter and Illustrator Anton Franciscus Pieck, was born on the 19th April 1895 – and died on the 24th November 1987. He is well known for depicting artistic scenes that have fairy tale and every day life setting. His paintings have been very popular through the decades appearing on numerous cards and calendars. As well as an artist, Pieck worked as a teacher for a few years. He is responsible for most of the art in the fantasy-themed amusement park Efteling, in the Netherlands and credited with one of the reasons for their success. Enlarge the images and spend some time looking at the beautiful details Pieck manages to capture.

Every one of us casts a shadow.

There hangs about us, a sort of a strange, indefinable something, which we call personal influence--that has its effect on every other life on which it falls. It goes with us wherever we go. It is not something we can have when we want to have it--and then lay aside when we will, as we lay aside a garment. It is something that always pours out from our lives . . . as light from a lamp, as heat from flame, as perfume from a flower.

The ministry of personal influence is something very wonderful. Without being conscious of it, we are always impressing others by this strange power that exudes from us. Others watch us--and their thinking and actions are modified by our influence."

"Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity." Ephesians 5:15-16
