Jeff flirts with Elizabeth Bennett

Elizabeth is trying to have some quiet time under the tree.
"She doesn't want to look at me. She's busy thinking about something. Maybe she can talk to me later--- when she's not busy."
-Jeff

Merry Christmas from St Lucia

Since Bobbie is 3/16ths Swedish, she wanted to work on this 1931 photo of Stockholm's Lucia queen. St. Lucia was an Italian saint but in Sweden they like to honor her as well.

shopping trip

A famous family tries to shop incognito, but John recognizes them right away. Is there anything else you would like to say about this picture, John?
"I hope my family likes it."

The Family Gathering

It is about how everybody got together to have a party (Franz Liszt, Hendel, the girl wrestler, The Three Stouges, and that's it).

Little City Annual Holiday Party

Last Night at the Meridian~John King cut a rug a the annual Little City Holiday Party.
This morning we worked on this snapshot from last night- He's still full from the fantastic Chicken dinner, John says dancing is a good way to burn dinner off.

Heaven Party Scene Two

Here is the second image in Luke's new series party scenes in heaven.

Bobbie's Tree

B: I think this would be a good Christmas card design. I'm trying to think of a greeting to go inside the card. I'm open for suggestions. It's like a psychodelic blue spruce.
J: I love how bright everything is. You learned alot while making this right?
B: Yes- how to change colors and sizes.
J: You made this pretty fast!
B: Yeah, like a neon tornado!
J: I would buy this card.
John likes it too. "Peace baby!"

Dear Clara

"All the people that were in the foster home passed away. They were there forever so they passed away."
-Harold

Jeff in the Purple Fog

Jeff is almost finished with this piece inspired by Purple Rain. He's really good at singing along to the soundtrack while he's working on the computer.
Jeff: I like the high notes.

Jeff's fully immersed in the 80's today; he's placed Cindy Lauper in the window.

Jeff: She sings prettier, like she's got a pretty voice.

A Musical Thanksgiving

Luke is thinking about his family this holiday season. Here is little Luke held by his mother Lola.
His father is next to him.
My Uncle Isaac and Aunt Gertrude are in the picture too. I miss them. My mom and dad are up in heaven with Jesus and Beethoven, Bach, Mendelssohn, Brahms, Schumann, Liszt, Chopin, Wagner, Vivaldi, Grieg, Hayden, Schubert, Sussa, Mozart, Foster, Prokofiev, Tchaikovsky, Strauss, Handel, Paganini...
That sounds like a sandwich.
HAHAHAHAHA.
(A discussion of paninis and other assorted sandwiches leads back to the topic of cheese...)
Anything else you'd like to say about this picture?
It makes me think about heaven.
