Merry Christmas, Joyous Yule, Happy Holidays, Season's Greetings, and Happy New Year!
This is an unashamedly, unabashedly anatomically incorrect card; of COURSE lions, rabbits, and songbirds don't really look like that! And certainly you'd never find them all together peacefully in real life; however, my theme for this year's card was "my favorite things" (including fluffy-maned lions, birds, knotwork and bunnies), so I chose to do it in my favorite-to-do "not-quite-real" style, and I'm allowed to have my fantasies, right? :D It's a variation on my actual printed card, which had a different border and was printed on parchment-patterned cardstock. Original pencil drawing is HERE.
I hope your holidays are wonderful! I didn't have time to send out many cards this year, but if you sent me one, you got one from me. I tried to do that, at least!
EDIT!: I feel so bad about not being better with getting cards out - in fact, I was so behind I finished the drawing Wednesday, printed them Thursday, and mailed them today! Still, If you'd like a card and don't mind it being late, email me your address - if you feel comfortable doing that - at synnabarinfo(at)aol.com with "CARD" in the subject line, and I'll send you one!
I hope to have a chance to finish off some art projects over the next few days - and read and sleep late, too. :) Best of all - not getting up at 5AM! Yay!
