I'm not drawing the pictures for next year's calendar in any particular order, and the latest one is for December, as you can perhaps tell.
I thought it would be fun to do a winter version of my earlier picture, 'La vraie liberte c'est le vagabondage'. And I was right; I had great fun doing it. Thinking of a suitable title for it is proving hard; keeping the french theme, I thought of 'toi, prends ta flute, Robin', a line from the French carol 'Patapan' that we sang as first formers at school, walking into the assembly with candles and being all angelic, or at least as angelic as a ragtag of 11 year olds can be.
But maybe just 'Welcome Yule'.
Anyway, there it is. Here's the summer one for comparison
The welcome of a good stock of wood, a hot kettle on a warming stove, the results of autumn harvests on the shelves....
