Merry Christmas

 

Hope you have a great Holiday Season!
For more than a decade, I've been making my own Christmas cards. Especially when you have a career working in Animation Studios.
Lately, I got hooked on doing comics-related X-Mas Cards.
This year, it's Marvel's "Maestro" as Santa.
For those who think this is the Grinch and know nothing about comics, The Maestro was a version of the Hulk from an alternate future timeline, approximately a hundred years into the future, combining Banner's intelligence with the Hulk's more malevolent aspects. 
In the comics, the Hulk used to say Bah! a lot, so I thought it would be perfect for him to say Bah-Humbug.
I did my best to stay faithful to a somewhat Jack Kirby facial expression. To me, that would always be the best Hulk ever.
Notice the mementos from all the rivals he defeated on his throne. At least eight of them.
Basically, I came up with a Christmas/Marvel mashup card.
Mashup: A mixture or fusion of disparate elements.
Safe travels during this Holiday Season, get some rest and prepare yourself for next year.
Cheers

This one was a custom-made birthday present painting for my friend Dan Tarver, based on the interior decorating of his place. Started with Photoshop, printed and stretched on canvas, embellished with acrylic, and partly texturized with gel.
