"Keeping the Dark At Bay"
Way up north where the nights are so cold and long the people there make up for it with warm hearts full of the joy of the season. The coming of winter is always a time for celebration and lights. They all help to hang these glowing lights, stars and strings of cranberries on the pines at the edge of town. There's a hearty stew, hot cocoa and good conversation to keep everyone's energy up. The darkness has no power here!!! Happy Holidays everyone! p.s......don't worry about that little guy placing the stars...he's like a little monkey, and he's tied to the tree for safety (his mother insisted). This primitive folk art painting is done with acrylics on a piece of old, grained Nebraska barn wood. It measures just a bit under 9"" wide and 7" tall ( sides are painted a deep earthy-purple red ) Is ready to hang also (sawtooth hanger on the back) and has a protective finish. Image shown is larger than the actual piece and the copyright notice on the piece is on the digital image only.

Instead of wreaking havoc on Halloween night she visits an isolated village somewhere in the world and assisted by her crew of one, her trusty tuxedo cat, Jingle Bells, passes gifts and toys out to the children.........from her big velvet bag..........Yeah I know....it just so happens that Santa is her BFF! And He's just full of great ideas! Happy Halloween everyone! This primitive folk art painting is done with acrylics on a tiny, gallery wrapped (no staples on sides) Canvas.
