Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you dear friends. Each time we have touched base whether online, in person, by email or just in thought - I am grateful. You add joy and meaning to my life and artful endeavors. Your encouragement means so much more than you know.
So from our home and my studio to yours, wishes for a wonderfully creative 2020! May you, your families, your pets and your friends enjoy good health and blessings with lots of laughter filled days.
This old master scene appealed to me since it included a woman among the shepherds. Some liberties were taken. Changes were made in the background and the chickens left out of the foreground. So many small faces were quite challenging but I'm pleased with the painting.
