Christmas art
Another illustration from Valentin Ramon and his Christmas movie coloring book. This really could be from any of the movies he presented in his book. Sorry for the blurry picture for I took it on a cloudy day. I used crayons with this picture using colors red, purple, yellow. green and gold for the bells and more yellow for the garland and stars are gold. I used brown for what I think is either a wall or a door where the wreath maybe hanging.

More Christmas Art
Here is another from Valentin Ramon's Christmas movie coloring book. Again, I mainly used colored pencils. In using greens and yellows and black I am pretty sure you know which movie and cartoon this one pertains to. I bet you even know by heart when the Grinch even says this line in the movie, cartoon and even maybe what page of the Dr. Suess picture book this is written. It is a Christmas favorite for all, and some may even go a bit far in the like or even dislike of this particular live action or cartoon movie for all.

My Christmas Colorings
The image chosen is one of my Christmas colorings that I just completed from an adult coloring book featuring illustrations done by Valentin Ramon entitled 'The Unofficial Christmas Movie coloring book'. This is a phrase that is used in 'The Santa Claus' I believe the first one. I u\sed colored pencils as the medium. The pajama top is Santa's, and I used multiple colors for the lights, and the cord I decided to make green since a lot of Christmas lights come on green cords nowadays. If you like this one there are going to be more from other movies.

Christmas Carols
Sitting around the fireplace on a Christmas Eve for now it's Storytime. Hope you like it. We Three Kings of Orient Are traveling along to that O little town of Bethlehem following a star that will lead us to a King somewhere away in a manger for we are hearing a carol of bells proclaiming what child is this. We see on our travels some decking of the halls with the hanging of the greens and hear some jingle bells for those bells are ringing hark the herald angels singing glory to the newborn King. Now we hear the phrase King of kings and Lord of lords has been born. Oh, come all ye faithful and come adore him and see the greatest gift of all that is love as the little drummer boy finds out. Happy Christmas to all!

Christmas Cookies
Hard to believe that's it that time already. Where has the year gone? Anyhow, who doesn't love a batch or two of Christmas cookies other than old Ebenezer Scrooge. In all my years of growing up I have always helped in this Christmas tradition even if it was only unwrapping bags of candy for various kinds of cookies and doing the cookie count to make sure everyone got a share when giving to friends. Honestly, my favorite Christmas cookies are Raisin and Mincemeat filled cookies along with M&M cookies mainly. What are your favorite Christmas cookies to bake and eat?
