Hoping this photo is a funny this year as last year!
Have the best painting year ever for all my wonderful artist buddies!  Of course much joy, peace, happiness, and good health!
(Oh, the jolly guy in the photo is not the real Santa it's me!)
Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

    This is such a great photo Michael and I'm glad you posted it again! It is becoming a Christmas classic!
    I hope you had a great Christmas day! Did any cardinals come to visit?
    Hope you get some snow soon if you haven't already had some.
