Santa takes a trip around the North Pole. He can’t use his reindeer all the time, can he? This is what he does for free time. The big guy has to get away once in a while.
I drew the line art with Pitt Artist Pens. The color is in Photoshop.

Santa Makeover?
I wonder if Santa gets tired of his wardrobe? What if he looks better in spring colors? The poor man!
I illustrated this for the local, high school Christmas concert. As luck would have it, it works with Illustration Friday’s topic of “excess.”
We go to excesses at Christmas, don’t we? We shop and eat until December 26th, then we make resolutions to get back in physical and financial shape.
Merry Christmas, and pace yourselves. All those excesses can weigh on a person.
The word, “Buzz,” got me thinking about a project I recently illustrated. This cover is for a story on an audio cd. It tells the Christmas story from the perspective of “The Glory Bugs.”
It’s a cute story. It’s available through Omni Seven Productions.

They will have a second story coming called “All Fired Up.” This one will be about Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in the fiery furnace.
When this theme came up this week, I pondered what is the most peaceful time of this year. Last night, we had a candlelight service. It was serene seeing all the candles across the sanctuary. Amazing how something as dangerous as fire can seem so peaceful when it is a tiny flame.
I hope in the frenzy of this holiday season, you will find some peace. It’s late on Christmas day, and I’m feeling it. It’s either peace or fatigue. Sometimes, it’s hard to tell the difference!
