Happy Hanukkah friends! And what did I get for you, you ask? Illustrations of course!

My immediate family celebrates Christmas, not Hanukkah, but our Jewish ancestors would
be proud to see my Dad cooking up Matzo Ball Soup every December 26th. And who can resist
a little gelt? Yum yum.

One of my best friends, Sarah is celebrates both Hanukkah and her birthday in December. Her birthday
party usually has a Hanukkah theme where we play with dreidels and eat Star of David cookies. This year
it will be a Hanukkah sweater party! Sarah was my inspiration and offered help to develop this illustration.

Here is the sketch and initial steps in painting as well as the finished card.

If you are in Kingston, this card is available from Dwell Boutique or Cybil Scott. Or order online in the website shop.

Enjoy the festivities!
