Santa and the Mrs.: September 2011
http://santaandthemrs.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Santa and the Mrs. North Pole Gift Shop. Thursday, September 29, 2011. Oil Pastels, Just Add Water. Just a quick update on my progress with the dreaded pastels. I pulled some water color paper from my stash and worked on another witch this morning. I think my goal is to do as many Halloween related painting and sketches as time permits until the end of October. This is Zelda's glamour shot. She's even wearing a touch of lipstick and has combed her hair. Well that was short, wasn't it? Remember, the winne...

Santa and the Mrs.: April 2011
http://santaandthemrs.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Santa and the Mrs. North Pole Gift Shop. Saturday, April 30, 2011. Two of my favorite things to sculpt are Santa figures and bears. I usually manage to include at least one bear with each of my Santas, in less of course he's a Nosse then there will be a mouse. This time when I started making Santa's bag of toys and trying to decide what toys to include I came to the conclusion that this was a bear run, or a Beary Christmas. I hope you enjoyed seeing another of the gang. I'll be back in a few days wit...

Santa and the Mrs.: May 2011
http://santaandthemrs.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Santa and the Mrs. North Pole Gift Shop. Thursday, May 26, 2011. Recently I presented a Santa on my blog and called the post, Bag of Bears. I had a dear follower comment that although she liked the Santa with a bag full of bears since she was a doll maker she would have liked one with a bag of dolls even better. Now I have to do something about the puppet population as there are only two of them. Then there’s the Jack-in-the-box situation. There’s only one if you don’t count the...Now that you see them s...

Santa and the Mrs.: November 2011
http://santaandthemrs.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Santa and the Mrs. North Pole Gift Shop. Monday, November 28, 2011. My First Santa of the Season. I sure hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I ate so well that it's going to take me a month of riding my bike to burn the calories from that one meal. Then there's the leftovers. Is it any wonder my winter and summer weights can be so far apart? Anyway, the reason for this post is to show you something that I've been working on the past couple of weeks. Sleigh bells ring, are you listening? I've rece...

Santa and the Mrs. North Pole Gift Shop. Saturday, December 31, 2011. It's hard to believe we've come to the end of another year.

Santa and the Mrs.: February 2012
http://santaandthemrs.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Santa and the Mrs. North Pole Gift Shop. Saturday, February 25, 2012. NOT JUST ANOTHER BUNNY. I've finished the second of my bunnies and at this point there are only three more to go. I'm trying to keep them from looking like anything that you've ever seen before. I'll leave the vintage style Easter rabbits to those who are good at it and concentrate on showing you what sort of rabbit I see when I think Easter Bunny. Has everybody left for the day? I don't suppose you feel like going for a nice cold carr...

Santa and the Mrs. North Pole Gift Shop. Sunday, April 29, 2012. WHAT’S MY LINE. Does anyone recall a popular television game show of that name that ran in the US from 1950 to 1967? I feel like I’ve been playing a part on the show as one of the celebrity panelists. My mind wanders while I work and dumb stuff starts popping in. Contestant Number One, would you please tell the audience your name and what it is that you do? See why I’ve been having this strange dialog running around in my head? Now, if you ...

Santa and the Mrs.: WHY JUNE 23RD IS SO IMPORTANT
http://santaandthemrs.blogspot.com/2013/06/why-june-23rd-is-so-important.html
Santa and the Mrs. North Pole Gift Shop. Sunday, June 23, 2013. WHY JUNE 23RD IS SO IMPORTANT. So, June 23. Is my twenty year anniversary of my living in this area. I still think of this place as a temporary home town for me even though I’ve lived here longer than anywhere else. Up until twenty years ago I had been a nomad, a wanderer and had lived in many places. Seventeen places, give or take, so settling down was one of those major changes that I mentioned. The main reason June 23. YO Grams, Whaz-up?

Click below to visit my Website:. Saturday, February 11, 2012. Valentine's Day is a time to show others your love, but after a recent overflow in my mailbox - I'm realizing all the packages seem to be to me from me.hmmm, is that wrong? Well, in a way I'm showing love to some of my favorite creative people that I've been so lucky to connect with in my online world. First, I received my package from "The Virgin Rose", whom you can read about in my blog post (from a year ago, already! Last, but not least, I...

Santa and the Mrs. North Pole Gift Shop. Wednesday, May 30, 2012. Of my experiment that is. I've finished the last of the four Santa figures that were a part of my experimenting with paper mache clay and am now working on getting the bodies finished for the three Santa heads that I showed you in a previous post. Santa has one little bear left to be delivered. I'm happy with the way they turned out and wish my photography skills were better. As always, thanks for stopping by. Enjoy your day. When picking ...
