"Saints and Santa"

8 x 10
oil on hardboard panel
sold

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year with hopes of a lot of saints and santas in your holiday!

This past weekend the Outdoor Painters Society held their annual Christmas lunch and a "dirty Santa gift exchange". Over 30 artists attended and brought an 8 x 10 painting wrapped in brown paper, which were promptly traded and exchanged until all packages were opened. I am happy to show you my "gift" from pastel artist, Nancy Bozeman, who I had just met on a recent OPS paint out in the Palo Duro Canyon. Hope you'll visit Nancy's website and enjoy her other beautiful pastels.

    Beautiful job on the Christmas painting. I missed the party, but hope to go next year. Lucky you to take away a Nancy Bozeman's painting.

    With all your beautiful plein air paintings you haven't needed a studio! Really fun to catch up with your work . . . beautiful Saints and Santa. All the best in 2012!
