Wow... that is just utterly beautiful. Not that the baby I'm holding is swaying my opinion or anything ;)
Happy Holidays.

Thank you very much. I'll confess I was feeling a bit "broody" myself as I drew this. LOL Watching our niece going through the "are we in labor yet?!?" game reminded me so much of when my own son was born, and how special his presence made our first Yule as a new family. It certainly made me appreciate the symbolism of the holiday that much more!

Thank you! You would not believe how much I fought with the design of those trees. This is one of the very reasons I love working in a predominantly digital medium - it is *so* much more forgiving when I inevitably change my mind about something. LOL

Merry Christmas! :hug:

"Your picture looks funny because there's a little hand and a big hand together on the baby" - Ellie Dreslough, Art Critic.
She misread the mother's hand as the baby's other hand at first glance and laughed at the "Big Hand Baby". No SANE person would see this. Ellie is my kid, henseforth, completely nuts. :)

(Don't sweat it..Ellie critiques all my stuff. "Mama! DRaw the dragon BLUE! Blue! That's the color...") ;)

Happy holidays! - Dee (and my wacky child who is on my lap tearing apar`t my desk instead of playing with the ZILLION toys a certain man-in-red left for her...)

LOL! My son Duncan does the same thing - though more often than not it's along the lines of "hey! Put ME in your picture Mama! Watch *this* pose!"

Happy Holidays to you and yours too Dee! :hug:
