Merry Christmas

Here's wishing you're having a wonderful holiday. This is my Christmas card for 2011. I've always wanted to do my own Nativity scene, but I've always found it to be a challenge because it's been done to death...after all, we had the Renaissance and the Baroque periods-300 years of the Church commissioning art!

Finally, I saw Donato Giancola's new Joan of Arc painting about two months ago, which gave me the initial spark of using hands as a theme, and this is the painting that came out of it. Thanks Donato!

By the way, this is available for sale as a Christmas card on Etsy. Check it out!

Merry Christmas!

Glo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ria!!

Angels we have heard on high,
singing sweetly o'er the plains,
and the mountains in reply,
echoing their joyous strain.

Glo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ria! In excelsis Deo!
Glo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ria! In excelsis Deo!

Merry Christmas everyone!
