Day 9 of Leslie Saeta's 30 in 30 Challenge


Christmas at Mom's
11x14 watercolor by Liana Yarckin

 This painting was inspired from several old photos of Christmas' past at my parents' house.  I refer to Mom in the title because these are all of her things that she brought to our Christmas celebrations.  Making sugar cookies with us, her favorite holiday deer with a wreath around his neck, deep red poinsettias.  I put her bell and icicle ornaments on the tree, too.  She always made and still tries are hardest to make Christmas magical.
