This was a very challenging piece. This was the first time I've ever tried doing a Santa, and frankly is one of the few males I've ever drawn. I added all kinds of crazy detail. I couldn't bring myself to do a classic, generic Santa. I didn't realize this until now, but... he's not obese. I had trouble coming up with a name, but my brother helped me. I like it. It's mysterious and mystical. I was worried that it might sound a little too forlorn, but when I look at the piece, I don't think it does. This was really difficult to paint, but I'm glad I did things the way I did. The woman who bought this is a frequent buyer of my pieces, and she said this is her new favorite. That makes me very happy because I really love it too.
