Maxfield Parrish

Not too many artists get to have a color named after them, but Maxfield Parrish is one. The distinctive blue color that he gets in his paintings is called "Parrish blue."
Maxfield Parrish was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and lived from 1870 to 1966. Like Arthur Rackham, he had a unique style and used it to illustrate all kinds of fantastical stories. Nobody really comes close to the look that his art has. One of his most famous paintings is called Daybreak. His panting "The Pied Piper of Hamelin" can be seen on the wall of a bar in San Francisco (you can get a look at it here), which is named Maxfield's. I've been there - it's really neat. I think you have to be 21 to get in though. But no rush!
