It was Tin Tin’s birthday yesterday, 84 years since his first adventure appeared in Le Petit Vingtième (“The Little Twentieth”), the weekly youth supplement to the Belgian newspaper Le Vingtième Siècle (“The Twentieth Century”), on 10 January 1929. 84 years of rising popularity that would have made his father, the born and bred Bruxellois Georges Prosper Remi (22 May 1907 – 3 March 1983), better known by his pen name Hergé, proud-er.

Chocolat Covering

Rogers' Chocolate DesignWas on the phone to Kim yesterday morning. She asked hey, so what do you do with art anyway? Thought to myself a couple seconds . . then told her. I design things. This Logo was one I drew in 1985.

for Rogers’ Chocolates of Victoria, BC.

I believe they’ve been in business now for over 100 years. Love their Chocolates! You may touch this Logo to find out all about them. Enjoy ;D

And here is Catherines’s lovely blog!
