I had different Christmas-y sketch ideas for a holiday card.
But this image was the most "autobiographical", if not
Christmas-y. It's from a series I had printed from the original.
Before the color prints, I had copied small black & white line drawings
from my original & handpainted each one, adding colored pencil & pearlescent paints.
Less vibrant & smooth than the printed version, but to me
they're sweet in their roughness.
Happy Holiday Season to all, & Happy Winter Walking. Rita.
