Santa Clause, "Elf"

Santa Clause - Elf

Portrait, 8.5 x 11in.

Lead and White Conte Crayon on Paper

When I did the more modern, now traditional Santa Clause I also thought it was important to pay tribute to where the imagery had originally come from and show Santa with his Elf ears, enjoying a bottle of soda he may be.  He is a "jolly old elf" according to the poem, and while I understand why everyone doesn't like Santa looking like Spock to one extent or another I respect the look - and thought it should be available to other like minded individuals - so if you do or you don't like 'em we've got your bases covered now.
