The third day of Ralph Hulett’s Christmas

Hulett always did several styles of Christmas cards. There were scenic designs (snowy New England, Christmas cityscapes, wintry pine forests), religious designs (angels, the three wise men, Joseph and Mary) and character cards (Santa, fat jolly friars and butlers, various animals, court jesters). The sample above is (clearly) a character card.

And some cards -- a few will be coming up -- are "mix and match."

Ditto for me. Ralph Hulett was a master with gouache. I love the way he's imprinted the robe with the burlap texture - really effective!
