A yule themed still life, with a red Christmas candle lit in the dark. The candle's flame warmly brightens the pinecones and pine needles arranged around it, with three red berries also catching the candlelight. In the background, colored lights shine to complete the festive holiday mood.
I often joke that I learned to draw and paint because it is easier and quicker for me than getting a good photograph. I do still make the attempt to use my camera more effectively from time to time, but I have more natural aptitude to using a pencil or paint. Often what few photographs I am satisfied with become reference for my artwork. I work with charcoal, soft pastels, oil pastels, watercolor, acrylic, and am learning oil painting. I tend towards more realistic, although I have dabbled in impressionism when the fancy strikes. I live at the dead end of a dirt road in rural Florida with my husband and a yardful of critters, while the local deer and wild turkeys eat my annual efforts at gardening.

Donna Mibus
This is so beautiful. I did not know you first had to undercoat everything in white. The pinecones are my fav. :-)
Katrina Gunn replied:
Donna, I picked that tip up in a YouTube video - lighter colors need the white underneath to get good contrast when using black paper. Thank you for the kind words - I was pleasantly surprised how well the pinecones came out after my previous attempt, which will not be posted!

I liked the unfinished stage too. It had a cool, minimalist look. But this more finished version is perfect for a Christmas card.
