Painting For Christmas

Christmas is my favorite time of the year ... and I could paint for this holiday all year round. On my painting table this week is my tin angel. It's a surface that I have had for a long time - a very nice size - about 16 inches. It comes primed - so all I had to do was start painting. Light pencil sketch:

Time to change my palette!! (just plain ol' freezer paper)

Well, I added a bit more shading and finally found something nice to put on the other side of the tin. I don't know if I will add much more, since the tin isn't that large ... but I do know I still need something...
