All I Want for Christmas ...



is peace on earth and good will to all. 

A new painting as a gift for my sister. I shipped it off to her home in Los Angeles and I am keeping fingers crossed she will like it.


Lady Madonna / 8x10 / oil on cardboard

In a very ornate golden frame!



Merry Christmas and I wish you all a most wonderful New Year!
