Small Town Christmas Parade 5x7 Greeting Card by Mark Tisdale.
This small town Christmas parade greeting card features elements of my own childhood. The backdrop for this artwork is in fact a part of my hometown, Montezuma, and the setting is based on memories of night time parades we once had here. And oh yes even today Santa on a fire engine is still the highlight of our parades. These days the truck Santa rides is a lot newer but in my childhood Santa rode on an antique fire engine that was no longer in active service even then. Today I'm told that although it's still parked at the firehouse, it lacks some vital parts that could not be replaced so its no longer road worthy. But it is in my imagination. I still remember with much fondness the cool night air and the Christmas lights of those parades. And I remember clamoring for the candy Santa was throwing as he came by. Happy memories, probably rose colored glasses, too, but happy nonetheless.
Does the image on this small town Christmas parade greeting card remind you of your own happy memories? Or is it just the quaint hint of Americana that called to you? I hope you'll share your thoughts about this artwork.
