A White House Christmas | Jerry Malzahn Art

After coming home from Thanksgiving, I headed to Dallas for a couple of days to babysit 9 (yes, I said 9) puppies for my friends. Why, might you ask?
Well, they had somewhere pretty special to be...the White House!
Jerry Malzahn was asked to paint an ornament for the White House Christmas tree. The theme for this year's decorations was "A Red, White and Blue Christmas".
Jerry is a phenomenal landscape painter which could be a bit tricky painting a small round ornament, but I think he did a magnificent job! If you look closely, you can see a tiny white chapel in the background.


While they were attending the artist reception in D.C., I was babysitting the 9 little bundles of joy and their 6 adult counterparts. I didn't take my camera so I don't have any pics of the sweet furballs. Sorry!

Here's a picture of a piece I purchased from Jerry for my dad a few years ago. It is still my absolute favorite one he has done. It is an elk standing in Odessa Lake in Colorado. To see more of Jerry's work visit http://www.malzahnart.com/gallery.html
