Our home turned 100 years old this year and once this painting is finished my plan is to start decorating for Christmas.

New Christmas Folk Art Painting, The Inn on Crescent Lake
The Inn on Crescent Lake is a place where memories are made. Many families over the years have celebrated weddings, family reunions, and holidays. Christmas is magical with several trees decorated throughout the Inn for guests to enjoy along with cookies and hot chocolate. Take a peaceful walk around the grounds along the moat where the water sparkles like frozen glass.
I've been wanting to paint this beautiful place that is in our home town. Last year we were blessed to stay there. I ran around with my husband, sister, and brother in law taking pictures of this beautiful place. It's so lovely and has a moat almost completely around it. I wish I could have included that in this painting but in reference to the building it sits much lower making it difficult to add to this scene.

Wishing You a Very Merry Christmas!
This year I painted this wintery Christmas scene called "Christmas Magic". My prayer for my readers is that we stop and reflect on the true meaning of Christmas as we fill our busy days with decorating, baking, and shopping.
