This picture is of Simpkin the cat, looking curiously down the alley. He doesn’t mind the cold under his paws!</p><p><br></p><p>This is a painting in pen and watercolour by Helen Beatrix Potter. You may have heard of her because she wrote The Tale of Peter Rabbit. You might even have read her books yourself! She is famous for her long-eared rabbit in the blue jacket, but this painting of Simpkin was one of her favourites. It first came out in 1902, in a limited edition of 400 copies. Compare this to the best-selling book of all time, The Bible, which has over 5 billion copies printed and sold! </p></p></section><section><h3>Your Winter Wonderland is out in the snow!</h3><p><p>You love the sound of snow crunching beneath your feet and catching snowflakes on your tongue!

It started off as a photograph that she manipulated on a computer and made into a screenprint. It is an abstract picture, and we think the top looks like snow hanging down from the branches of a tree. What do you think it is of? Anya Gallaccio is now famous for her artworks that include flowers, sugar and even chocolate!</p></p></section><section><h3>Winter schminter.

The dance floor is a beach at night, and the moon is their disco ball!

She was born in 1935 and she has been an artist for 65 years! </p></p></section><section><h2>When it gets cold outside, you make sure to grab:</h2></section><section><h3>What's your favourite winter animal?</h3></section><section><h3>What useless present would you secretly be super excited to receive?
