About the artwork

“For this is the season of giving and this is what I give to you.
A retelling of a Christmas classic;
12 gifts from a love that is true.

May you find Hope, Joy and Peace during this time of year.
And as you roam far and near.
And into the goodness that is here.

So please sing this song for all to hear ….thank you, thank you my dear”
