Hey Everyone
Well it's eleven more days until Christmas and today I wanted to share one of the Christmas paintings I completed from the past. Every year I like to catch the Christmas spirit by completing a Christmas painting or two.
This Christmas is coming awfully quick. It's actually quite a surprise when I think about it, 11 more days, can you believe it?. I've been in my art studio so much lately lately that days just seem to fly by! Are you experiencing that too?
The title is "Christmas Present" 16*20 Oil on Canvas
When I painted this I took an impressionist approach with the pine trees, probably the kind of Christmas trees you would find surrounding one of the many cottages in Santa's village up in the North pole.
When I say many cottages up at the North Pole I mean lots, you would probably be surprised. Real estate prices have just gone through the roof up there recently! I was shock to see it last time I was there!
Anyway this painting was actually completed for the Christmas of 2010. This painting hangs in our dining room throughout the year.
It's one of my favorite Christmas paintings that I've done due to the light pastel feel and the bright candy-cane cottage that either Santa lives in or one of his helpers!
Anyway I Wish you all a Very Merry Christmas and as always be safe out there and thanks for looking!
