Still Life With Redhead

1 Eve & Apple sm

As Christmas nears, I am getting busier and busier. I know that’s nothing special; everyone is these last few weeks. The season of giving requires a lot of taking, too: taking of time, energy, money and patience as we battle through the traffic and crowds to complete our Christmas preparations.

When it gets to be too much, it is nice to be able to just sit for a while, enjoy the calm of our surroundings and just breathe. No need for movement; just blending in with the scenery.

You can create your own still life* by just checking through the shopping list I have provided below.
