Default Last Santa Ornaments for '07: #4&5

These are my last "Gargac Style" ornaments before Xmas numbers 4 and 5, they also already have a new home for Xmas, but wanted to post a pic of them anyway.

I placed the negative areas around the temples on the one piece which shows up as the black area in the pic. In person it looks neat seeing through the space between the eyes and hair and I gave him just a plain round style hat. On the other one, I call him Twisted Tassel Santa, made the tassel ball stretch down farther than normal just for something different than the others.

Painted with acrylics and finished with deft satin spray. Hope you enjoy. Again asin my other Santa s, a big thanks to Mark Gargac!!!! Bill
