Nice one, Val, I love it !!!! By the look of his rosy red cheeks , I think that maybe there was a piece of that holly left on the chair before he sat down.(LOL)

So this is what goes on in your mind, is it? I see......

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments, it was painted for a bit of fun so if I do turn it into a card I think I'll have to be selective as to who I send it to. Definitely no elderly aunts LOL Kay, I think I must have modelled his face on a knitted Santa my mother made for my children about 35years ago. He still comes out every Christmas and is much loved but he is the most miserable Santa you have ever seen. LOL Alan I think that bottle on the floor behind him is also responsible for his rosy glow, it's empty! Robert, blame Mr.Spicer, he started it all and got me thinking so it's all down to him..........

A possible Christmas card for this year inspired by a thread on the forum. I promise no husband was harmed in the painting of this card and , as you can probably tell, I have never attended life drawing classes given that the knees bear an uncanny likeness to my manikins. Only Mrs Claus knows what Santa's knees look like without his long red trousers on....LOL

About the Artist

Val Kenyon

I am a self taught artist or, as I like to say, I'm "unrestricted by formal teaching" which probably explains my mish mash of styles. I paint in most media, watercolour, gouache, oil, coloured pencil and my favourite, soft pastels. I'm inspired by the Scottish landscape, nature and animals and…
