And finally, as the hectic Week before Holidays turns to a snowy weekend with last-minute gifts, cards, etc...

Here is my 20-somethingth annual online greeting card, something I've done since (gasp!) before Facebook.
Started as an early-adopter gift to friends, family and co-workers without web sites of their own (or "social media").

Happy Holidays - 2024/2025

Here's the latest iteration, just in time to share with folks who haven't sent/exchanged cards f2f - yet. Hopefully enjoyable.

Happy Holidays! ,And Winter Season (or Summer down under)

Happy Winter Solstice to all.
It's the shortest day of the year. Daylight lasts longer from here on out.
I hope to take the time to get out into nature and have fun.

Climate change has made it so there's no snow in my area anymore, so now it's not much of a WINTER solstice for me. But I like looking at photos from the past that contain the mood I wish for.
None of these photos are mine, all stolen from Tumblr which stole them from elsewhere.

Additionally, merry Christmas and happy new year!

:: 47-53 [AL] Winter Weekend ::

Here's a piece following this season's festivities! I've never eaten a Yule Log before, but I do love Swiss rolls.

47-53 [AL] Winter Weekend by EarlyOnion.jpg

This drawing features some of the kiddos from my 'Another Life' story. It's basically a spin-off where all my OCs from all my stories coexist.

From left, kiddos who are present are Shintaro, Sindri, Manel and the ones not facing us is Rosa, Piht, and Rocío. Idun and Thiazi are not here. The one serving the Yule Log is Terenzio. Outside through the window, we can see Adrià (Manel's dad) inviting Shin's parents in (yes, Shin had excitedly run off to see his friends).

None of them have ever seen Yule Log cakes, so it makes one wonder where this could have come from.

And just like with Sugar Skulls, I realised that I failed to make the food item as the focus of the drawing, again. It's in the centre, yes, but kinda small and surrounded by other 'bigger' things. But ehh idk.

P/S: Originally, I was hoping to make a big one featuring my RO duo and my own OCs (the main ones) that might total to 12 or so people; but that was a bit too ambitious and I'm kinda drained from life events. So, I scrapped that idea. :< Yet, here I am drawing a picture that has 10 people. I do not understand my actions, haha. x'D

*I'm traditional. It was always fun to decorate a Christmas Tree, with lights, boxes full of old and new ornaments, tons of silver tinsel, and a beautiful star or angel on the top. Of course it's impossible to duplicate the childhood thrills of Christmas - but we can still have something of it.
