I have already eaten Christmas cake. Christmas has begun! My art group met in Kea Community Centre for our party. The hall was decorated. Everyone brought a bit of food to share. We ate, drank and painted. There were several displays of wintery things for inspiration. A blue table-cloth or a white table-cloth, glasses or candlesticks made of glass or a red and dark green candlestick, red berries or pinecones, green or yellow leaves? The choice was ours! And the golden thing with wings - an angel or a Christmas fairy? Gold and glass, they aren't easy to paint. Perhaps Christmas cake on a yellow and white table-cloth could be easier. My picture is not very good. My leaves are the wrong sort. My candle is the wrong colour. (I prefer red candles.) My pine cones? They're more like mouldy potatoes!
