Merry Christmas!

Here are some images from Tolkien's Father Christmas Letters, not the same as I posted last year.

Yes, they're incredibly charming, full of wit. The more realistic drawing I still find incredibly charming, but the humour is more gentle. The more cartoonish style just says "funny". :)

oh, I love these! A beautiful *card* of the season, dear Mechtild. Thank you and best wishes to you, always. ~jan

Thanks, Jan. I suspected you'd like this. *g*

Thanks so much, Maeglian. I hope you are well and have a lovely, joyous Christmastime. Yes, it's a paradise-like world he's imagined, one in which penguins are *not* a polar bear's dinner! (ETA: besides being from opposite poles.)

Happy Holidays, dear Mechtild!

And to you!

I love these illustrations! Merry Christmas! Christ is born! Glorify Him! (greeting and response from the Byzantine Catholic church).

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Alleluia! Well, in less than a week, anyway.
