Ralph Hulett's Christmas, day XXIX

This heavily designed nativity scene was done in the early sixties. It's very close to a study Dad painted for an indie Christmas film he produced, painted and wrote called A Light Shines in the Darkness. He pitched the finished film to Walt Disney, who passed. I recall Dad saying that Walt liked it, but didn't want to pick up a sixteen-minute art film with heavy religious overtones.

The staff and officers of the Animation Guild wish you and yours the happiest of Christmases.
