Military Santa

This is a Santa that I painted especially for my nephew, Patrick, who is in the Army. It is also for all of the men and women who serve in the armed forces. We thank you for protecting our great country. We wish you could all be home for Christmas with your loved ones. Know you are deep in our thoughts and prayers.
peace!

Santa, look what I drew.

Just getting into the season. My dad used to play Santa...well actually, he didn't have to play it. He was it!! I have many fond memories of him doing so.

I just got done baking 3 batches of cookies so I will be able to leave some out for Santa and his reindeer. Do reindeer eat cookies? lol Maybe I will eat their share. More cookies to bake next week.
Enjoy.

Winter in Indiana

watercolor 14 x 21

What a snowy day we had today. The winds were blowing so much. Just because I painted those little snowmen for my bathroom, I am not responsible for today's snow storm.
Schools and activities are already closed to tomorrow...which is actually today since it is almost 4 am. lol. Enjoy the snow...I will be happy to send you some.

Melting....

watercolor 7 x 7

I wanted to do these little paintings of snowmen for my bathroom. It is done all in snowmen decorations. They will be framed up with a blue mat and black frames.

All of my trees are now completed and so is the village under the tree. Whew. Tonight it is snowing but don't blame me. lol

Have a Holly Jolly Christmas

watercolor 7 x 11

This was a demo that I did a few weeks ago at the senior center in town. No, you do not have to be a senior to attend the class, or to teach it. We had a blast. At the end, I showed them how to add snow and glitter to really make it festive. I also made this into a card for Christmas. Enjoy.

Back to decorating for me. I just finished my 10 ft. tree in the living room. It has 2,000 lights on it. A bunch of gold bows, gold beaded garland and 268 ornaments. I think I still have more ornaments to put on this tree, but I did not get that box up yet. I think there are some in the boxes that have the village in it. I am getting there. By the end of the week I plan to have all of the decorating done. Whew. Then to think of writing out my cards and baking. My envelopes are all calligraphied. There is still time for you to come and help out :)
