The festive artwork is provided by the late Thomas Kinkade, the "Painter of Light" (1958-2012), whose snow-covered cottages and Victorian Christmas scenes you most likely will have seen adorning Christmas cards and even jigsaw puzzles, as well as on the walls of many houses. For more on this amazing artist, please visit www.thomaskinkade.com. There are a couple of paintings in here which are not by Thomas Kinkade, I know, but they look very nice and suit the others well :)

I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and all the best for the coming New Year!!!
