      @Charlie-Eve-Ryan I think you are right about the importance of seeing the balloon! I like what Lee did and the compromises you came up with! I like both of them but the second one gives us more of a story. It's going to be awesome I can't wait to see it finished!! I think it would make a great Christmas card!!

        @Charlie-Eve-Ryan What if you changed the viewing angle of Santa and the balloon slightly so there is more of a foreshortened look, ie the balloon is farther away from the camera than Santa therefor allowing the viewer to see more of the balloon. I like the bottom image you came up with as well. Just some thoughts.

          Thanks @Thrace-Shirley-Mears and @Rob-Smith 😃

          @Rob-Smith: I'll definitely play with the angle too and see how it reads!

          @Thrace-Shirley-Mears My parents would love the xmas card. Thx

              @Chris-Perry Hey thanks 😃

              I've been trying different compositions, but I still think I like the Mrs. Clause and Balloon one the best so I may start painting it and see where it goes.

                      @Charlie-Eve-Ryan - I really like the way you did the layout and included both the making of the balloon and then Santa using it to make his deliveries. It's wonderful!

                        @bharris and @rich-green Thanks so much, it was a fun one to work on. I went thru quite a few layouts before I landed back on this one because I felt it added more to the story overall.

                          I have really enjoyed all of the work this month from everyone but this is my favorite piece. It reminds me of my mother I think, so that is probably why. Love your style!
