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

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.

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

Beautiful winter scene, just looking at it makes me feel cold and the cabin looks very inviting.Great painting for a card.

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

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

All the best,
