You know how a lot of families send out family portraits with their Christmas letters? I had this idea to make an illustration of a nativity scene with the members of our family in it. I made this last night, and had a lot of fun. Just wanted to share. [Smile]

Bev, that's adorable. You're so talented! I have a feeling people will be saving your card for a long time.

That's awesome. Is the Guinea pig (Hamster???) part of the family, too?

That's really cute. My husband wants to do an illustration for our family pics this year but I'm a little afraid that people will be upset at not being able to see the kids in real life. Jes is just pretty artistic, and on top of that he hates having pictures taken. Maybe I could take pics of the kids with a cheap camera and include them. Not sure.

Bev, that is awesome... and I'll think about commissioning you as well (too bad I'm Jewish, right?). You rock! That is SO cool!

I wish I were that creative.

Thanks all of you! I really appreciate it. You see, I haven't been drawing much lately. I have been focusing more on music and performace. I even started getting down on myself that I wasn't *really* and artist. (You know, that EVIL voice in the back of your head?)

Raia, while this set up might not work for you, there are endless possibilities. Being Jewish is never a problem by any means. [Big Grin]

Aw, that is cute. I like it.

Wait, a guinea pig... I hold a vendetta against the things, I personally um... Well, let's just say they fear the blender near me.

But, you named it Ender... Now that's just... gyah. How dare you!

Really though, good card.

Could you draw a nativity picture using Sauron, Orcs, nazgul and...oh, ok...I'll take my medicine and go back to the padded cell. [Blushing]
