Kicking Off Christmas

On the coming weeks I'll post a few Christmas card paintings from previous years. Here's one I was pretty happy with. Sometimes the paint just goes down the way you want it to. It was especially fun cobbling together a folksy Santa costume from old reference material and with Max as a huntsman it all ended up with kind of a Russian feel. Acrylic 8 1/2 X 11

  2. Sam looks like he's carrying a hockey stick around, ready to pummel some unchristmasy types that might be lurking nearby.

  4. Would love a poster print of this! It looks lovely.

    Any chance of putting it on a "create on demand" place?

  5. I really love the feeling of the background on this just the right amount of whispy.

  6. That's brilliant, Steve! I should nick that to make Christmas cards with it for my friends. Well, the ones who are aware of "Sam & Max", at any rate.
