Holiday Mood

It's time! I know it's still 12 days til Thanksgiving, but it feels like Christmas to me. For several years, the Saint Louis Watercolor Society had some fun paint-outs at Christmas time. About 40 painters met in the large fellowship hall of a church and set up elaborate still lifes to share. We spent the day painting and eating. What fun!

Here are my 3 favorite paintings from those days. The originals, all 15" x 20", are not for sale because I pop them into frames and hang them in my home during the season. But the images are available in my Etsy shop printed on white deckled edge greeting cards with matching envelopes. The insides are blank for customized greetings.

One of the greatest searching modes on Etsy is the treasury. Etsy users curate a group of items, usually following a theme, that are posted as a gallery. The viewer clicks on the individual pictures to view the items and the shops of the sellers. Most treasuries have a 2 day life, but I was lucky today to get one of the random 3 day placements.
