During Christmas, our extended family brings a gift to be opened by a random family member. We draw numbers and choose our gift and if we are lucky, you want to draw last so you can steal the gift from someone who has already gone first. Usually we are too nice to each other to steal but this year I sweetened the pot. I gifted a painting. Any size, any medium, any subject matter except naked people or cats. (Or naked people holding cats.)
The winner was my cousin Amber who lucked out and got the last number!
Her subject was a lone old oak tree at the end of autumn on a some rolling hills. She wanted me to use black, white and some red.
Here is her painting. I’m going to surprise her with it at Easter. Click on the photos to makes them bigger!
