Let's make this birthday one to remember.

79 years old (Born on October 24, 1945)

Happy Birthday, Anthony! Ever since you stepped into the National Gallery at just 10 years old—probably critiquing Rembrandt's brushstrokes before most kids mastered finger painting—you've been dazzling us all. Your talent for capturing timeless beauty is matched only by your ageless sense of humor (seriously, are we sure you're not secretly an Old Master reincarnated?).

From mastering classical techniques to inspiring countless artists worldwide with your incredible journey and recent successes, you've painted a life that's truly one-of-a-kind.

Here's wishing you another year filled with creativity, laughter—and perhaps fewer museum security guards mistaking you for part of their permanent collection!
