Mr Bean Hijacks Another Rembrandt Masterpiece
Mr Bean Hijacks Another Rembrandt Masterpiece
Mr Bean hijacks another Rembrandt Masterpiece. The source image is a famous self portrait by Rembrandt called “Self Portrait with Two Circles“. Rowan Atkinson’s Mr Bean character put into absurd situations and inserted into famous paintings by old masters has been by far my most popular images, so here’s another one to be added to my ever growing Mr Bean Store. I’ve done quite a few images over the years from very complex time consuming pieces to the simplest of pieces like this one and these silly images always win out. Be sure and check out the full Mr Bean Collection Here. I’ve been asked to put more of this type work out there, so look for more craziness ahead.
Will Mr Bean make a comeback?

Remembering my Dad on his Birthday
Remembering my Dad on his Birthday
Today I’m remembering my Dad on his birthday. Malvin R. Pike born October 14th, 1919. He would have been 99 years old today. I always said my dad would live to be 100. He was a strong man, always fit. Born a poor share cropper from a very large family, he had to grow up fast. He quit school to work the farm in the 6th grade and later finished his education while working at Exxon. He served bravely in WWII and was wounded 4 times. Of course, they didn’t count shrapnel holes as wounds back then. Four purple hearts, two bronze stars and numerous other accommodations, he was on the first wave of Higgins boats to land on Utah Beach on D-Day, June 6th 1944. After the war ended, he started work at Exxon where he remained until he retired. He married my Mom, Mary Matherne Pike shortly after returning from the war and had six kids. I was the last of the six. Below are a few more pictures of he and my mom.
Happy Birthday Daddy!!
