Well, I like him. My passion is Early American art in all forms. Lots of people don’t realize true folk art is not meant to be “perfect,” like commercially produced art. I took painting lessons for years, but to replicate a very old painting, you can’t do too much shading, for example. Many itinerant artists did not do this. I might add that genuine old folk art pieces - as imperfect as they are - are quite valuable.
I am happy that you are so pleased with your Santa. He is an original and all yours.

@ECBG Your new Santa has brought the spirit of Christmas to you in March! So happy for you! Enjoy him for years to come!

@aroc3435 Your post reminded me of making apple head dolls in art class in grade school. So much fun! Thanks for that nice memory!

I love primitive and folk art pieces like this. I think his face is wonderfully interesting.
I'm not much a fan of the modern Santa. I like mine from the 1950's back to Father Christmas type styles.
Great piece!

No, I didn't see them! I'll have to take a look! Was it posted in Home or in Holiday?

Holiday. In the search block you don't have to note the area, just the title or main words.

I think it's the eyes, they just look so inset and a little crumbly, like he has a bad eye infection.
The rosey pudgey cheeks are very Santa like.
I looked on the website and saw all the bunnies.
