Merry Christmas from me and all of your new artist friends!
What a gift it has been to spend some time everyday during this holiday season thinking about all the wonderfully creative people in my life and their artistic contributions. In the midst of the commercialization, the short dark days, and the unthinkable tragedy of Sandy Hook, it has been a welcome respite reflecting on all of these amazing people using their talents to bring something beautiful into the world.
And this is just the tip of the iceberg. For everyone I have introduced you to here, there are many more that could be included. If you have enjoyed getting to know our creative friends, let me know in the comments that you would like to keep meeting them throughout the year.
They really are beautiful and amazing aren’t they!
