    What a sweet painting! The simplicity (encouraged, I'm guessing, by the speed at which you had to work) lends a special quailty to this, imho.

    A very Merry Christmas to you and yours, with thanks, as always, for the light you bring to us all each day!

    Your impressionistic style of quick sketching always is inspiring to me. This particular piece is even more touching, considering the subject matter.

    That's what I call a felicitous Christmas card!
    Also like those red songbooks. How cleverly inserted they are...
