Sunday Safari - Happy Antlers



Kari Piippo, Rudolph serigraph, 1998

Sorry for this week's lack of posts, my life has been 
pretty hectic since it was the end of the school semester.
Finally as of today I am on vacation, ready to rest, return 
to my beloved Animalarium and ease into the festive spirit...

In the mood for more reindeer? Head on to Shelley Davies' lovely blog...
Shelley and I share similar tastes, and often similar ideas for postings. 
This time she beat me to it, but happily there's so much art out there 
that our selections barely overlap!
