While we don’t all get snow for Christmas if you do, why not build a Christmas snowman. Today’s illustration is soft pastel brushed over lightly with water.

#551 and 552 A Couple Shots of the Furst Gnome
I love to practice drawing the Furst Gnome characters. The first one is done in pen and soft pastels and the second one is just a plain #2 pencil drawing.
#550 of the 1001 The Bells They Are Jingling
Every where you go this time of year the bells seem to be ringing. From the Salvation Army to the bells on some people’s hats. The latest drawing is done using a pen drawing highlighted in watercolor pencil.
#547 The Furst Gnome and the Frustrating Christmas List
The Furst Gnome just figured out his Christmas list and boy is he frustrated. Today’s drawing was done using pen and soft pastels.
#545 of 1001 Picking Some Candy Canes
One of the many doodle illustrations I do over the course of the year. This one is done in color pencil on white paper.
#544 Of 1001 Taking The Christmas Tree Home
Once you get your Christmas tree you have to get it home. This latest illustration, done on an old book with soft pastels and color pencils, pays homage to the age old tradition of getting your perfect tree home.
#543 of 1001 The Furst Gnome Gets a Candy Cane
Another in my series of Nordic Gnome drawings I have entitled The Furst Gnome. Just for clarity The Furst Gnomes are a group of gnomes not just one. This one is on an old book page and rendered in soft pastels.
#539 & 540 out of 1001 Two More Flowers
The flower in the blue vase was created using soft pastels brushed with water. The background is another old book page. The flower on the right is done on a 4×8 piece of white card stock using acrylic paints.
#538 of 1001, Watering the Flowers
I thought I’d try my hand at another illustration. This one is of a little girl watering her red flower. I used soft pastels on a cream colored paper.
