November 21st marks the opening for our 2nd annual Santa Show. Come in during the "It's A Wonderful Life Event" Friday night and kick off the holiday season with us!
This year we have 24 different Santas in all shapes and sizes from Rastafarian Santa to Pittsburgh Steelers Santa.
Ken Vinton, the artist that creates these Santa portraits, has no limit to his imagination. He has created abstract and fun pieces to bring in the holiday spirit. Ken's Santas are all hand-drawn and then printed as giclees. The Santas are drawn with graphite, outlined with micron precision pens, printed, and colored using a blend of soft colored pencils to bring the Santas to life. Each Santa has a different boarder and is encased in a different frame giving each one its own personality. My personal favorite Santa shows Santa Claus snorkeling under water; the thing that makes this particular Santa pop out is the border that surrounds him. The border is a mix of ancient roman and classical Corinthian pillars that hold up a window through which you view Ken's Santa. The Santa show has something for everyone--the entire family can find a Santa that is right for them.
