Julia Blatchford married into one of the oldest families of New York, the Potters, whose ancestors came to America from England in the seventeenth century. Pierce Francis Connelly modeled Mrs. Potter in repose with delicate features that accentuate her beauty and elegance. He also demonstrated his skill with the expert modeling of the folds in her shawl and the detailed carving of her lace bodice.

This emphasis on texture and design created a decorative effect used frequently among nineteenth-century sculptors.

Young Beatrix loved to accompany her father on photographic ex­p­editions where he instructed her about composition, light and subjects. Every summer, Rupert Potter would rent a country house; firstly Dal­guise House in Perthshire for the summers of 1871-81 where Beatrix wrote letters decorated with drawings that she later used for her characters Peter Rabbit and Jeremy Fisher. Then later they went to Lin­deth Howe in the English Lake District where Beatrix illust­r­at­ed The Tale of Timmy Tiptoes and Pigling Bland. Scotland and the Lake District were clearly her key formative locations. When Potter came of age, her parents appointed her as their house-keeper and discouraged any notion of personal freedom. They did not want her to go out with men, get married or have babies of her own.

So she dutifully obeyed, and recorded her everyday life in a journal, written in code. Beatrix’s uncle wanted to introduce her as a student at the Royal Bot­an­ic Gardens at Kew, but she was rejected because she was female. As the only way to record microscopic images then was by painting them, Potter made endless draw­ings of lichens and fungi.

Tale of Peter Rabbit has generated licensed merchand­ise since its first commercial publication. Potter registered the pat­ent for a Peter Rabbit doll in Dec 1903, and the following year designed a Peter Rabbit board game. Even Wedgwood agreed to create tea sets illustrated with Potter’s characters. Finally the royal­t­ies rolled in.

Beatrix Potter was born in London in 1866, to two independently weathly parents. She was educated at home by governesses and grew up isolated from other children. Beatrix had many pets and, through holidays spent in the country, found she loved flora, fauna (rabbits, frogs etc) and their habitat.

POTTER, Muriel Doris December 28, 1920 - December 24, 2009 Muriel Doris Potter (nee Parrack) passed away at her home in Calgary on December 24, 2009, at 88 years of age, with her devoted husband Ernest at her side. Muriel was born on December 28, 1920 in Kent, England, to a family of second-generation flag-makers. She was the eldest of five children and worked in the family business making flags for many clients, including the English Royal family. During this time, she developed her artistic skills which would blossom into a cherished hobby - oil painting. Many of her paintings were exhibited and sold in Montreal's art community. Muriel met and married Ernest while he was stationed in England during World War II. Muriel served in the Auxiliary Territorial Service of the British Army.

As the result of her observations, she became widely respected across the scientific world as a fungi expert. Needless to say, the Royal Society refused to publish her technical papers. She sent her black and white picture letters to six publishers, but was turned down by all of them. In Sept 1901, she decided to self-publish and self-distribute cop­ies of her book The Tale of Peter Rabbit. Later that year, because the colour printing blocks were mak­ing other children’s books popular, she finally landed a publisher. The contract was signed June 1902 and the books were printed.

Appropriately this building had been used as the office of Beatrix's husband William Heelis. Since Beatrix Potter actively supported the National Trust during her own adulthood and bequeathed Hill Top to the Trust in her will, it made sense for the Trust to open Hill Top to the public in 1946. This lovely farmhouse is not huge (6 rooms) but it has become a firm favourite with British and overseas travellers on a literary pilgrimage.

Professional commercial photographers are able to conjure with different types of objects. Whether it is a corporate brochure or a firm marketing report, they are proficient enough to come up with high-quality images so that the viewers are left spellbound. One of the most common fields in which these photographers can outshine is architectural Photography as it requires an artful portrayal of interiors and exteriors. In contrast to as effortless as it sounds, it demands a lot of expertise to get the preferred results. Can depict anything-right from buildings, products, and office parks to new construction sites in an imaginative way.

Parnassus Potter's parents had no worse aspirations for their daughter than many families. My own father and his four brothers got married, had babies and visited their parents once a week - their only sister had to stay home and be her parents' house keeper. The five boys supported her financially, as their quid pro quo. But there are two extra points to consider. Beatrix's delight in her farm and the pleasure she got from having annual holidays at Hill Top, caused her parents to become very very distressed. And in 1902 Bertram Potter secretly married in Edinburgh. Although the parents did not cut Bertram off, they were not well pleased with his independent decision making.

This smart lady now had an independent income from the sales. First published in 1902 Hav­ing become financially independent of her controlling parents, she was able to buy Hill Top Farm in the Lake District in 1905. She visited as of­ten as she could, sket­ching the house, garden, countryside and animals for her new books.

When the war ended, she immigrated to Canada as a war bride and, with her young family, settled in Laval West, a suburb of Montreal. During this time, she cared for several children of neighbouring families and also worked in the Occupational Therapy Department of the Jewish General Convalescent Hospital in Chomedy, Quebec. Muriel and Ernest retired to Oxford, Nova Scotia. During their retirement, they enjoyed extended annual vacations in Barbados. Muriel loved basking in the beautiful sunshine, floating in the turquoise waters and socializing with their many wonderful island friends. Fifteen years ago, Muriel and Ernest moved to Calgary to be near their growing family.

Muriel pursued her interests in painting, knitting and crocheting and gardening. She always had a special place for animals in her life and there have always been faithful dogs in the Potter household. Muriel will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by Ernest Potter, her dedicated husband of sixty-seven years. Muriel is also survived by her children Barry and Keith Potter (Sandra Fitzgibbon); her grandchildren Christopher (Holly) and Shelley Potter (Katherine Pratt); great-grandchildren Chloe, Natalie, Brooke and Tucker Potter; and soon to be great-grandson Jack Potter-Pratt. Her greatest love and source of joy were her grandchildren and great-grandchildren who will forever carry her memory in their hearts. Muriel was predeceased by her daughter-in-law and committed caregiver, Diana Potter, beloved wife and companion of Barry Potter, in October 2008. You may forward condolences through.

Her cottage garden at Hill Top was designed in the popularised by Gertrude Jekyll; it combined traditional materials, informal and dense plantings, and a mixture of ornalmental and edible plants. In 1909 she bought another farm opposite Hill Top, Castle Farm, which became her main Lakeland base. Much later she used her inherit­ance to buy the farm at Monk Coniston Estate. Potter busied her­self writing even more books, eventually reaching a total of 23 succ­esses. With the steady stream of royalties from her books, she began to buy pieces of land under the close guidance of the handsome, young solicitor William Heelis. FINALLY her parents stopped barring her marriage and in October 1913, she and William Heelis were married.

Alas her parents’ decades of interference had ensured the couple were too old to have children. Beatrix died at Castle Cottage in Sawrey in Dec 1943, leaving most of her property to the National Trust: land, cott­ages and farms, all within the Lake District National Park. The V & A holds a large coll­ection of Potter's drawings, letters, original manuscripts, photog­raphs etc in the Beatrix Potter Showcase.
