My first of two Christmas paintings that I will be doing this year. This is an oil 16x20 oil painting on a stretched canvas. My inspiration was a scene in movie I recently saw with my children, "The Chronicles of Narnia". When the children first come out of the wardrobe closet into the forest, they stumble upon a lit lamp in the forest. I saw that and thought it was a surreal scene that was very effective. I decided to incorporate that idea in this painting and include a Christmas tree. My first title for this painting was "To Santa's Hideaway" to try to illustrate that even Santa has to get away :). But, my wife came up with the current title and I liked that better. Anyways, I will be putting this painting on Ebay on Sunday, the 6th of December.
