Had fun doing this old world style Santa Claus.  Reminds me of the old Christmas greeting cards I would see as a child.  He is in my Etsy store.  Take a look here.

Santa #2 2018

Santa II 2018

18x24 Oil Painting on Artist Canvas Board

by Cheri Wollenberg

This is the second in a series of Santa paintings that I have been working on this year, 2018.  I love the whimsey of Santa Clauses.  No one has ever really seen him....at least adults haven't, but I dare say he has many faces.  So, my point is that since we may not have ever seen the "real" Santa Claus we can paint a picture of him, and we do not have to be afraid that he does not resemble the "real" Santa.  Years ago when I was getting degree in art education, I took several painting classes.  I remember the instructor once told us that we always paint a small portion of ourselves in the execution of painting others.  I do have almost white hair!!! (LOL) HoHoHo.  Take a look at him.  He is listed for sale on Etsy.
