Wow ! Did this year fly by or what ? I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and thank you all for your kind words of encouragement to me . I know some of you now have your own websites, have entered into shows , are showing your work , making your own cards and sketching as well . It warms my heart to know I may have helped you all a titch to get out of your comfort zone and grow. I do hope you also use what God has given you to encourage others as well.
The Christmas season is in full swing with everyone hustling and bustling about shopping , baking and decorating . I am trying to purposefully make time to be still , read God's word and sketch . This sketch was done with a sharpened stick and ink and then a watercolor wash was added.
In this last post of the year I thought I would share other Christmas sketches and Cards I have done over the years. If you haven't already given it a thought this is a great time to make next years Christmas card.
The Christmas Tree in Rockefeller Center is always a delight to visit . I have played tourist the past few weeks with out of town company and have seen the lights of this years tree a few times . It always puts a smile on my face no matter if you see it during the day or at night.
Everywhere you look through out the city there are lights and decorations.
The best light of the season is Jesus Christ , our living hope.
May you and your family take time to be still and take in the wonder of Christmas as we celebrate Christ's birth of The light of the world .
When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy . Matthew 2:10
Till next year " Keep your brush wet and your sketchbook by your side " I do have a few spots open in the Maine workshop in July and will be teaching in Old Forge NY in August . I will let you know when those dates are firmed up as well as dates in Litchfield , CT. in the Spring.
