This year my Fiancee' and I decided to send out some holiday cards for our friends and family. And rather than picking some out at the store, we thought we should create our very own, so I painted this little piece of our Yeti friend decorating his tree and getting ready for Christmas. It's probably the one time out of the year he takes a break from killing mountain climbers and sasquatches, and for good reason. I hope everyone out there has a great holiday!

Happy Holidays to you too Nate! I just graduated from Art Center, so I'm gonna be running round' looking for opportunities. I should prepare a good portfolio for PIXAR too.
Great work on this piece nate! A lot sharper than your previous pieces. You using more cutout?

I hope you don't mind comments from random people, but I stumbled on your blog tonight. I just wanted to tell you how much I love your work. To be honest, the Ratatouille animations sucked me in first, but your personal work is really impressive as well. Super likeable characters! Thanks for sharing with the world. :)

I know purple has a bad rap for being one of the most gaudy colors in the spectrum.
But its one of my favorite.
I like the color treatment on this piece.
