   I usually take the month of December off from painting to focus on holiday preparations and family. This year, I committed to do a painting for the production of “Elf, the Musical”. The Community Foundation of NC sponsors this production to benefit “Make a Wish”. The CEO of The Community Foundation of NC approached me with her vision of a large painting of Buddy, the elf that will be raffled off to contributors who donate to the foundation, proceeds go to Make a Wish. 
    Several weeks ago, I met with the Elf to do a quick photo shoot in costume. Then started the task of creating the big elf painting. I love painting figures so this was  fun to capture. 
   If you are in Wilmington, check out the Thalian Hall website for tickets to this holiday event. It’s sure to be a great time and benefits Make A Wish! If you are so inclined, donate to the Community Foundation of NC and you’ll have a chance to win this beautiful painting!
