+++++ And this is what Thomas Kinkade said about this work +++++ "I've chosen to re-visit a favorite artistic place in 'Blessings of Christmas', which takes a fresh look at the charming cottage of "Home Is Where The Heart Is II" in its evergreen bower, but now in the snowy grip of winter. Somehow, the warmth of family life lived in this cozy dwelling is accentuated by the shroud of snow that that sits so gracefully on the trees. The cheerful snowman wrapped in his red scarf and wielding a straw broom, embodies the very spirit of the season." "One of the simple pleasures in my life involves returning to a favorite place to notice the subtle variations in mood and theme that time and a change of seasons can effect. My imaginative challenge in painting 'Blessings of Christmas' was to take a familiar scene and transform it into a dream-image of Christmas. The change of season subtly alters the mood, lifting this out of its specific locale and locating it in the mythical world where we celebrate the joyous tidings of the Christmas season all year 'round." ~~ Thomas Kinkade
