2021 Christmas Greetings

topdogArt and Design

Every year at this time, I send out our very own Merryman Christmas Cards to all friends and family on our list. It's a tradition that goes back thirteen or fourteen years, I can't remember. Nobody is counting anyway.

Each year is a bit of a challenge. Some are more challenging than others. For instance, last year's card was brutal and dark, much like the way I felt about 2020.

This year's card is bit more happy and festive, though with my uniquely bent perspective.

Here is this year's Merryman Christmas Card:

If you would like to add your name to my list for future Christmas cards, use my contact form to send me your mailing address.

NOTE: You can view six of my previous dog-centric Christmas cards in my online shop. YES! I have an online shop! Didn't know that, did you? That's because I just created it a few days ago. Right now it only features my Xmas cards and true to my impeccable sense of timing, I posted them too late for this year. I will be adding items as they are created. I eventually hope to have a mix of original art and prints for sale, as well as links to my work with third-party Print-On-Demand suppliers.

But enough shop-talk!

Here's wishing a Merry Christmas to you and yours, and health and happiness in 2022.
