Xmas21 ~ Smiling Signy

 


             Smiling Signy

Jeane gave me the idea, calling this pic "When what to my wondering eyes should appear..."  I like that!

I can suggest the xmas tree behind her, with twinkling lights (blurred color?).

Maybe make her eyes even shinier. 

It's the way I'm thinking right now, but I think I like it enough to start doodling.

xmas card ideas 2021

 

Just from us this time.  No more SH xmas cards.  So the field is wide open.

I'm looking at simplified graphical lino images.  Color blocks or color bw print.

How many to send out?  Maybe I can print them myself?  Probably too many for that, close to 50-ish.

I like the expression of the bear, but not necessarily the bird.  A scarf? Xmas tree in the background?  Ooh, or a polar bear ~ NPB maybe.


 

I like the background framing the image.  Can be xmassy.  The color is nice too.

I can see Signy in the chair, a la Freya on the couch.  Simple colors, maybe not so dark.


 


Ha ha ha!  I can see this as Signy.  Or a sheep.  Love the expression.

Any sheep.  Maybe Clover.


 

Graphical designs for sheep in field.  Interesting.

Something with Clover.  Baa-Humbug?


 


Or Baa Baa.

Another Sheep.

 


Mouse in rocking chair, variations on a theme, in front of the tree, fireplace, etc.
 





Kewt boxer face with Signy's markings.  Xmassy.  Maybe a smiley face like the xmas card with Signy from a few years ago.


 Smiley face Signy with lolling tongue.

 


 Head tilt.  8-]

Three favorite ideas so far are:

The head tilt smiley Signy with ornament of Xmas tree or some such.

A mouse in an xmassy cocoa cup.

Oh, and a mouse sitting in a chair in front of the tree ~ titled “not even a mouse.”

from blogpost to Jeane:

Still poking around with xmas ideas.  Yes, something like Signy's goofy smile would be nice.  I wonder what ornament she'd have.  If it's an old favorite, that might be one of my woven angels...No, Signy! could be the title.  ;->  She'll need twinkling eyes.
