The Reason for Ornament Season

Its finally here! My 5th annual Christmas ornament. I look forward to these all year long. In years past, I have featured the full nativity scene, the three wisemen, even just Mary and baby Jesus.

Each year I strive to create a painting that captures a new or different view of the nativity scene. This year I imagined all the children in town trying to get a peak at baby Jesus. I wanted to capture a different time of day other than the usual nighttime nativity scene.

So here is Mary and Joseph as they prepare to leave Bethlehem with their new precious baby boy.

Also I wanted to include photos of past ornaments. The ornaments are always first come first serve and once Im sold out they are gone. Im thankful for those who have collected each year and for those who have begun collecting since then!
