Okay, I'm doing one more Christmas card and thought I would use a painting I did for my Father-in-Law about a year ago. It's hanging in his living room so I took a picture of it to use in a card. I never posted this one so let me know what you think of it as a painting and a Christmas card. Thanks!

All the best, Jim www.paintingsbyjim.com

It's a really good painting. Just to warm it up a bit -- you could do it in photoshop -- make the smoke from the chimney swirl a little bit. Kinda make the cabin look more warm and inviting, so the fisherman will come in and get a Christmas hot toddy. Kathy

Great Xmas card - the water looks really cold but I really like the whip of the fishing rod for some reason.

Jim, I'm with the others, too. Great card! Wow - there's a lot of detail in this! Really nice.

Wow, very nice idea for a Christmas card. I love the fisherman. He looks like he is freezing! hugs Lona

Thanks Lona, Yeah, I'm not a fisherman and especially when there's a warm cabin around!
