As a young child, Judith Ann Griffith is said to have combined her love of drawing with the joy of exploring the fields and forest surrounding her home. Her early interactions with the natural world in Bucks County, Pennsylvania gave her a sense of security, wonder and belonging that still serves to inspire all her work. She's best known for her published illustrations of Angels and Santas~ and this glorious reproduction of her artwork for the counted cross stitch artist is an exquisite example!
Santa is dressed in his very finest red coat and pants as he sits on his forest throne. A glorious, intricately arched cedar chair serves as a perfect place to rest and commune with his forest friends, a tiny decorated tree in his hands. . An owl perches on the back of his chair, near a bright redbird; the fox, squirrels, deer and raccoon gather near curious bunny rabbits right at Santa's feet. You'll work on 14 ct Navy Aida with cotton flosses and sequin embellishments to create this dazzling Santa Stocking.
