Noel...Noel...Christmas is on it's way...

Jingle bells, Deck the halls, Silent night, Noel, The Huron Christmas carol...it's the season to bring the music and art into your world, your home.  
 
Wherever you are and whatever you are doing this Christmas season, take a minute or two and immerse yourself into the music and art of the season.  The power and magic of art and music are healing, nurturing, moving, uplifting and comforting.   
 
Each piece of art that I have created this season and this past year has been created with love and nurturing.  I hope that you feel that in the colours, the shapes and subject of my art.  Whether it's a painting, a greeting card or a hand felted ornament, please know that I put all good intentions into each and every piece so in turn you can feel the peace in your heart and the joy you give when you give art as a gift.  

I wish you a very happy Christmas and a joyous new year!
