Art Notes
The Christmas season is a wondrous time. So, have you been naughty, or have you been nice? Young and old pay attention to their actions this time of the year to make sure that they make Santa’s good list, and not the naughty list.
Santa sits behind his ornately carved wooden desk pondering his list, deciding the fate of the young and the old. Mrs. Claus is in her rocking chair knitting in front of the roaring fire while their cat lazily naps. Carefully penned letters from children around the world sit in mail bags waiting to be read. Maps of the worlds are at the ready for Santa to review so that he can plan his voyage on Christmas Eve.
Thomas Kinkade Studios also wonders if they are on the “good list” and proudly presents Santa Checking His List.
