A Shag Christmas Greeting

From the local greeting card and gift shop... the Abominable Snowman living in MCM style on the slopes! Contemporary artist Shag (a.k.a. Josh Agle) never fails to recreate the humorous atomic graphic work of the past without sneering at it. He makes kitschy icons classy. His worlds are always populated by hip, swanky dudes and dudettes living the idyllic lifestyle.

The shop I recently stopped in carried a large number of Christmas-themed cards with the Shag illustrations... I like this piece the best (though all are worthy of admiration, I promise). And look at the Christmas tree ornament shapes of the ski-lift in the picture window!

Hey! The stockings hung on the Wendell Lovett fireplace? That definitely has some possibilities...

Norcrest 50's Mermaids Wall Plaque Pair, for those oh so bare bathroom walls. I think this little bit of kitsch should help my bathroom undergo a completely new attitude change.
