Merry Christmas!

from 2016
Mother Christmas
I have been sharing winter themed paintings from years past on my Facebook page and Instagram since the season has become so busy that there really isn't time to paint.  Some of my favorite artists share older art as well, and I really enjoy it when they do, so I am following their lead.  This painting is the one I shared today.  


Last night Vic and I went out for dinner downtown in Castle Rock and I was so excited to see the lights.  They are all over the area and Vic drove me around so that I could pop in and out of the car taking some photographs.  I am like a child in a toy store when I am surrounded by a multitude of things to photograph, I get so excited and inspired.  These are just a few from last night.  One thing I love about Colorado is how there are so many people outside.  People love the outdoors here.   




My favorite photo is the one below.  It's just such a serene and peaceful sight to me.  The warm glow in the houses, the streetlights, a few Christmas lights...and that mailbox...I love it. 


I will be back some time after Christmas with some new work to share.  Think Alpacas!  :)

Until then, Merry Christmas to you all and thank you SO much for following my art and for all your support here and on social media and also for buying my art.  I appreciate every bit of it and you have helped me to keep going!  Thank you always.

♥ Lisa

  2. All your photos of the lights make me want to get out and drive around my area to see what decorations there are. I think the very last photo with the mailbox would make a beautiful painting!
    Have a very merry Christmas, Lisa. I have enjoyed seeing your art over the years.
