Artistic Santa

10.25x9 watercolor and ink on paper.  The sketch was done last December for a larger watercolor titled Santa's Workshop but didn't paint this initial work till now.  One of my brushes was used as a model for this imaginary figurative scene.

Santa & Toy Horse

10x7 watercolor on Langton 140 lb cold press paper and Daniel Smith paints.  I painted him last week in my hotel room; he seems to be hurrying along to get the toys ready for distribution.

Old St. Nick

11x15 watercolor of the old man himself ready for Christmas.  I drew this figure from a life size Santa doll and hope he can fool all the boys and girls on his annual North Pole trip across the skies.
