Then I headed inside to do the glass up the staircase. One of the ladies that works there said that it doesn't feel like Christmas there until I paint their windows. How nice is that! Always a artistic challenge for me to come up with new, interesting images for their windows. I believe this is my 4th or 5th year painting their windows for Christmas. My how time flies!
When I was working on the wall of 9 windows in their lunchroom, Brian Hall (630 CHED Sports Announcer), came up and said it was nice to see me again then shook my hand. I'd drawn his caricature at an event for Christenson Developments awhile back. He said that he has it hanging in his office!
I really like how the wall of windows turned out. Some fun images! My favourites is the snowman falling in pieces and the Santa ( I like his hat! ).
Christmas window painting is winding down now with one more to do. I don't know if I'll be celebrating or be sad …. I've been out a lot over the last few weeks painting Christmas images. I've definitely tried to come up with interesting graphics for people. After all, I don't like painting the exact same things. Once I get the last of my window painting done I'll be hunkering down to do a whole bunch of caricatures for people who would like to give them as Christmas gifts.
