I have to confess that I have yet to really grab ahold of the jolly holiday spirit, wrestle it to the ground, and eat it's brains (to gain its knowledge). Obviously my mind is still a little stuck back in Halloween mode. Sure, I've put the lights and Christmas tree up, done my Christmas shopping, and absorbed all the garish pageantry that has been loaded onto this holiday, but it just hasn't clicked for me yet. I'm going to do something about it here and now, though, or I'm afraid the whole season will pass me by. So I'm posting some Christmas images. Some are from a book I illustrated called "The Lonely Christmas Tree" that I meant to post on hear a year ago, but never got around to it. Next is an old cover I did for a book about the Advent, followed by a rejected set of characters about the first Christmas. The image of the caribou is a design that I made for a 4'x5' speed painting that two friends and I did at the company Christmas party this year. Here's hoping that, like the lonely Christmas tree, I find the holiday spirit before the season is over. Happy Christmas everyone!
I simply love image 3 and 5 !!! very well done , gets the feeling of season running down my heart ='( .
