Gingerbread Cookie Says It All

That is, the image, says it all. The gingerbread story is a whole different adventure. Here’s one interpretation of it for any little ones in your world. My intent in creating this image was simple: to create a playful, even joyous image in this mayhem-packed, troubled world.

Here’s a slightly larger version for you. It’s 4×4 inches and painted in gouache on paper.

That Gingerbread Aroma

While we’re here, how ’bout imagining all those sweet and wonderful smells of holiday cooking. Oooh la la, I love those smells. Such as? How about spicy ginger or cinnamon? Or what about cranberry relish bubbling on the stove.

And so, like this little Gingerbread Cookie painting, I will keep this post short and sweet! Here’s wishing you and yours a gentle, friendly, peaceful, and abundant Thanksgiving and Holiday Season ahead.
