Angels make me happy. This one is ink and watercolor matted on Christmas paper for a card.
About Advent
Advent is "the first season of the Christian church year, leading up to Christmas and including the four preceding Sundays." It is the season observed in Christian churches as a time of expectant waiting for Christ.
I get a bit annoyed with the common concept of "12 days of Christmas" being before Christmas. These 12 days are actually the 12 days between Christmas and the coming of the Magi (you know, those 3 kings--smile). Yes, Virginia, there is a Christmastide season and it is NOT the 12 days before Christmas.
And now, I apologize for getting all huffy. Seriously, if you are celebrating the birth of Christ, then the blessing is the blessing.
