“Colorful Christmas Tree”
Mixed Media Painting/Collage
Sharon Cummings
2014
It’s a little pathetic that my daughter has put up and decorated the tree herself this year. She also put up the wreaths, bought poinsettias, made a ginger bread house, baked sugar cookies and put antlers on the dogs. She is in college mind you, but she did it all alone. It sounds so sad, but we ALWAYS wait until the 15th to start Christmas! For me the time between Thanksgiving and the 15th is a whirl of painting, packaging and promoting! This year she was so bursting with festivity that she couldn’t be patient and wait for me and my husband to finish up our BUSY time of the year. The “ahhhhhhhhh” time has finally come! So we are joining her in the fun and joy! I will not be around much until after the New Year. It’s time for the reward for all of the hard work. Shopping! Now that is something she and I will do together. 🙂

I hope you are having a happy Christmas….For many years of my life, I did not enjoy the Holiday. When I was 10 years old my Dad committed suicide just 6 days before Christmas…for me the Holiday lost all meaning and became a horror to get through each year….until…..I had my own child. My daughter is the most exuberant and festive person I have ever known. Everything must be decorated! She isn’t a materialistic person so simple little inexpensive gifts give her plenty of joy! Stocking stuffers are a favorite. She loves to bake and clean the house for guests. She makes cards and sings all the classics starting December 1st. Really there is NO way to avoid feeling HAPPY about the Season with her in my world!! She changed my life…and now Christmas is again Merry for me. 
The piece above really expresses my life right now…me…my husband and our daughter…..Merry Christmas ALL!!
