Only Once A Year Santa painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

Only Once A Year Santa painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan Just one more Santa Claus. I had so much fun painting these. I really do want to paint more but find it so hard with taking care of my mom. My time is so limited but sometimes we must put aside what we want to do in order to fulfill the things we must do. I am so blessed to spend this time with her and have this year with her. She is 90 and we have laughed and hugged so much. I have taken her shopping and out to eat. Time is valuable so I will paint and post when I can. I hope you enjoy these as I had to sneak away to paint them. Merry Christmas to you all and thanks for visiting. 5x7 oil on canvas figurative painting

Jolly Old Saint Nick santa painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan I snatched a little time today to paint a Santa for you. It is Christmas time and I could not let it slip by without painting him. I could not get rid of the glare and the color is stronger than it really is. I have lost my camera so had to take the pic with my phone. 5x7 oil on canvas. Santa Claus

Cheery Oh Mr Snowman snowman painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan Again this year I felt compelled to paint just one more painting of this snowman. He is a gift from my good friend.

Christmas Dreams snowman painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

Christmas Dreams snowman painting by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan I just must share the cutest story. Recently I posted how that I have my 90 year old mother living with me for awhile. She is wheelchair bound and my life adjustment has been challenging to say the least. She is such a cute little lady with silver hair that wisp around her face creating the sweetest halo. Well needless to say my time to paint or any alone time has really suffered because of my commitment to help take care of her. Today I thought I would get up at 5am so I could paint before she needed me and the chores of life began. I am sitting at my easel smiling and painting when my cell phone rings at about 530. It was mama wanting me to come get her up so we could have coffee. I could do nothing but lay my brushes aside and walk gently down the stairs and open the door to see the prettiest lady I know smiling back at me. I finished this painting in bits and pieces throughout the day. Maybe I just have to learn to...

Broken by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

Broken by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan Once again I revisit this ornament. If you have followed my paintings for very long you will remember it from last year and maybe the year before. Anyway, I will tell the story once more. Many years ago when I was going through a very rough time in life my sister bought me this special ornament. It was very expensive back then and I loved it more than any other ornament and valued it for years. Last Christmas as my daughter was taking down my tree she said what if I drop and ornament and break it. I said it really doesn't matter except for that special one. About that time I heard the crash of fragile glass and a loud gasp.... I knew in my heart of hearts that it was that ornament. I went into the living room and she just stood there with her mouth open.  I cried...she cried.... gently she swept up the broken pieces and put them in a special glass jar. I could not just throw it away. I got it out today and placed it with my little clear glas...

Off The Tree by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

Image
Off The Tree by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan A favorite and a few pieces of peppermint. I found this pitcher at TJ Maxx and fell in love with it it is shiny but has ridges. I am sure you will see more with this pitcher. Also I bought the little white dish next to the Santa with the piece of peppermint in it. The red candle is one my sister gave me for my birthday many years ago. I am trying my best to keep the background smooth to emphasize the objects of importance. 8X10 oil on canvas panel.

Christmas Things by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan

Christmas Things by Alabama Artist Angela Sullivan Once again I could not resist this little snowman. It is not something I would have bought myself but a friend who knows me better than I bought it for me. It is so unique and just has that Charlie Brown Christmas tree appeal. I am really trying to work on my skills and painting a little differently giving more concious thought to the detail. This is a 8x10 oil still life on canvas panel. It is for sale for $80 just contact me to purchase
