Sinterklaas actually came November 17. His special day is December 5.sinterklaas.jpg

His special helper is Zwart Piet, but there are actually thousands of them.

A gift from one of my students:

My Christmas gift.  M traded with a friend.  I fell in love with it at the friend’s studio because it reminds me of my experience here in Holland…in so many ways.  I especially like the electric pink angry rain.  Sorry for the glare.
