Christmas, ca. 1964


Thanksgiving is over, let the Seasons Greetings greetings begin!

I found this large tempera painting on butcher paper in my studio yesterday. I'm guessing this was created about 1964. Santa and an elf are trying to move a stubborn reindeer in the snow. It is no accident the reindeer looks a little bit like a Shetland pony, since at that time we had a herd of about 70 ponies (mostly Shetland, some New Forest) on the family farm.
