Santa 2007


Here's my version of Santa Claus for this year! I wanted to somewhat re-invent his look, so I was looking into something more believable, as if he was really just an old man living in the north pole. I drew a bunch of other versions, most of them way more stylized.

I was curious about the way his modern look came about, so I looked it up online... Gooooogle is the best thing ever!!! Apparently that whole myth giving full credit to The Coca-Cola Company for Santa's modern look is not true. They only popularized the look that was already cretead by Thomas Nast and Clement Clarke Moore in the 19th Century...

I was a little late for Christmas this year, but hopefully you'll enjoy it!
Happy New Year everyone!

Wow, it's been 4 months since the last time I posted anything here... This is something I've been working on for a friend's book. Been doing some sketches to figure out the look and the mood of the story. Check back for more!
