Scenes of Christmas

Haven’t been painting much. My life has been so busy lately getting ready for Christmas… I’ve had to reserve my creative energies for cookie-making, decorating, and pointing my camera phone around, trying to capture the beauty of the season. Here are some of those images for you to enjoy…

Happy Holidays!

I love these stars, carved from wood and lit from within, they adorn a breadmaker's stall at the Kaiserslautern Christmas market.

    1. Interesting thing I didn’t know about that Cathedral the last time I visited: the windows were stolen and hidden by in a cave by the Germans during WWII, which may have preserved them. After learning that, I payed extra attention to the windows there.
