Happy Holidays!

Join me throughout December for a series of exciting book and ornament signings in Chicago, New York, and Long Island.

Look for my book—the one that musician John Legend had in his hand and that Katie Couric Tweeted about—A Magical Night Before Christmas. It is paired with the 2010 Gund Bloomingdale’s bear. My coordinating trim and ornaments are in all Bloomingdale’s stores nationwide.

I have collaborated with Kathie Lee Gifford on an ornament to benefit The ABC Foundation, an organization creating model programs for vulnerable children and their families designed to permanently break the destructive cycles of abuse, neglect, sickness, and homelessness. Meet Kathie Lee and me at the signing event in New York at Lord & Taylor, December 9th from 6-8PM.

Look for my custom ornaments in Bergdorf Goodman in NYC and my art work from my book A Very New York Christmas as a backdrop in Santa Land at the Plaza Hotel.

Saks.com has just featured my Times Square ornament on their holiday main page !

What an honor.  My ornaments are now available  in-store and online from them.

One that you should especially check out this year is  the Saks Custom 2009 design.  It is really fun. I have been doing custom balls for Saks for the last 5 years and normally I feature the building front and center. This year I wanted to switch it up. The theme is the saks elevator featuring  a very new york moment: a stylish mother, father and daughter(hugging her American girl doll) sharing the lift with Santa and the Statue of Liberty.

What you can’t see online are all the other details- the chrysler building and empire state  emerging from a saks gift box, a skating Prometheus by the  Rock Center tree, a newstand, top and bottom are the white snow branches you see on the main floor, the facade of the store  smaller on back, and lots of snowflakes.   The doors are painted with a mirror like silver so they are actually reflective like the doors in the store. It retails for $75.00.

Each is handpainted, taking 3-5 days to complete each one!This is a limited edition of 500 balls- only for 2009.

Also new for this year is a custom Saks dog-  A Maltese sporting a Statue of Liberty hat  while lounging in an Espadrille shoe. A limited edition of 200 and retails at $42.00My first signing at Saks will be on November 7th. from 1-4 PM.

Hope to see you there!

Until the next sketch!
