This coming Saturday 8th December is the third Christmas With The Impossimals event and the cumulation of Evergreen Art Cafe children's Christmas card competition in conjunction with Waitrose and JR Press. We will both be there between 11am - 3pm on the day for what promises to be a great free event and everyone is welcome so come along for a bit of Impossimal fun.
Not only will there be Impossimals galore, some of the last originals left in the country and exclusive oil sketches but it will also be the day when we present the winners of the competition with their winning entry professionally framed. The winning entries have also been turned into greeting cards and are available from Waitrose in Daventry, the gallery and local shops in the area with all proceeds going to the local children's charity Pete Spence's Helping Hands.
After spending two days going through all the hundreds of fantastic entries we finally decided on these two fabulous paintings to represent an Impossimal Christmas.
First up is Harry Fitzpatrick aged six, this probably contains everything to have a perfect Christmas. From snow to Santa, from tree to present and of course Christmas dinner. It pretty much covers everything and even better includes an excited Impossimal. Great work Harry, see you on Saturday!
The second winner is Lola Preston aged nine with this stunning Impossimal reindeer complete with red nose and an Impossimal Santa and helpers. Great use of colour and a perfect piece for a special Christmas card. see you on Saturday Lola!
A big thank you to Evergreen Art Cafe for putting on such a wonderful competition and of course a big thank you to all the children that entered, they were all fantastic paintings and it really was such a tough decision to chose the winners. If you do get chance, pop along this weekend and say hello, full details of the event can be found here or by visiting www.evergreenartcafe.co.uk
See you Saturday!
