This is a busy time for most of us as we wind up things from 2013 and prepare to take on the challenges of 2014. I hope the transition goes smoothly for all of you and that the events of the new year will be pleasant and rewarding. This is not a new painting since life has gotten in the way of art. I am entering it this week for the Paint Party Friday challenge because I really want to get back into the swing of things. I am adding this to Paper Minutes challenge for this week: Baby, it's cold outside.
Old or new, it is a beautiful winter painting. Love your header, too. I wish you a New Year full of health, happiness and creativity. Take care of yourself, Valerie
