Merry Christmas!






Let Us Adore Him Christmas Painting by Richard Lance Russell
This is Richard's newest piece. The original is for sale at the City Creek Deseret Book Gallery in Salt Lake City.

As a mother, Mary's adoration of the Christ child and the way she is holding his hand bring to mind how it felt gazing at my own children. The piece really captures one of those lovely little moments in family life. 

The piece below was finished last month, but I didn't get it posted here on the blog. It's such a fun, elegant little addition to the Shakespeare paintings:
