[edit] Older talk

Peter Blake the artist (from what i've read on wikipedia, he makes cool album covers :) should he be called (painter) or (artist)?
I don't know art... and i'm not sure what i like. --tristan

There was very little, if any, painting involved in the SPLHCB cover. Kingturtle 11:34 Apr 18, 2003 (UTC)

Yeah, i've been looking about on the net, i have seen some stuff that looks painted (?madonna's collection), but there are photos, engravings, and collages.

So... any problems with renaming him to an artist?? (there's still no article) :)
BTW.. is there an automatic thing that enters your name and the date and time?

yes, three ~ in a rhjkdxfhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhzjsklsdf ure gayow stamps your name. a fourth in the series, if you want, stamps the time. Kingturtle or Kingturtle 11:53 Apr 18, 2003 (UTC) ;)

it's probably fair to say that most of his best known work is painting, although many of them have collage elements - "(artist)" is fine. I'll write an article on him tonight (about five hours from now) if nobody gets there before me. --Camembert 12:26 Apr 18, 2003 (UTC)

Wow! awesome job, good work!

Thanks very much! I hope to add a bit more when I find my books on pop art (lord knows where they are...) --Camembert

I would call him an artist because he falls under the pop art movement which is about art. Anyway if anyone knows where i can find a really detailed biography on Peter Blake i would really like to know because i need it for coursework. If anyone knows please post the website here. Thanks. Aaron15

[edit] Visual analysis

The section that details On the balcony is a visual analysis and verging on WP:OR at least and copyvio at worst. I tried to find a source but there is a lot of confusion with mirrors, etc So I couldn't tell who's ripping off whom. It didn't sit well with the rest of the article so while I was doing the copy edit I commented it out. If no one screams I'll delete it. - brenneman^(t)(c) 01:20, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
