Title:
Stagecoach Ride, Lunch Break
French countryside - 1870; Santa was driving his stagecoach through the countryside to the village.
Santa decided to take an afternoon break from his packed stagecoach with the goodies. While he found a bench in the French countryside he thought he would play his favorite tune with his accordion, perhaps sharing his bread crumbs of his sandwich for lunch with the friends of the forest, which upon hearing his music, started to come one by one. Whether the animals in the woods were more interested in the crumbs or Santa's melody was questionable. Or they might've come for both.
In the stagecoach was a person who later was to become a famous painter Renoir. Renoir was also the Santa's best friend.
With them was the little girl who was an inspiration for his paintings. This render was an imaginative depiction of Renoir's painting of that day, when Santa was resting as the painter's daughter listened to Santa very fond with her dog beside her.

( Imaginative idea of Renoir's Painting from that day)

Fri, Jan 03, 2025I believe blue jays are a sign of good things to come or good luck?

I assumed that one blue jay would be sufficient to convey the bird's delicate presence. I didn't want to overcrowd the trees with them because there were many others on the ground already.

Fri, Jan 03, 2025That's a good observation of the render scene and recollection of the jay bird facts, Jamie.
Anyone who can spot even a blue jay in the wild must be extremely fortunate due to their uncommon beauty as well.

It would be a pity to leave out the birds on the tree and in the frozen bird fountain on the right; as Bob Ross would've said while painting his scene: "Now that we have made the trees, let's put a bird on this branch and let's put another bird so that he doesn't feel lonely, this way they'll be a chirpy couple which will also make the trees happy."
