Red Ornament on Tree


"Red Ornamemt on Tree"
Betty R. Felenchak
Oil on 6 x 6 inch Ampersand Gessoboard

The lights and ornaments on the tree are some of my favorite traditions of Christmas.  Along with Christams cookies and getting together with family.  I hope you all had a great holiday season this year.
