Lighting the way to Christmas

This Little Light of Mine

As artists, we need to start thinking early about Christmas. I've had this image on the waiting list to paint for awhile now, and I decided now was the time to do it. 

I just loved this girl's outfit-the red tulle skirt and matching hat and scarf as well as the slightly oversized fleece jacket. The background trees and bushes also attracted me to paint this scene. The lantern light was a little bit of challenge to make it appear to "glow" but I think the yellow is a nice contrast to the red.

I'll be making these into Christmas cards very soon.
