Been sent the link to Christmas artwork to order cards from school. DS doesn't know what is is either, btw. I showed him the picture on the screen and he confirmed it was his handiwork, but when I asked what it was he said 'I dunno. Not Christmas'. Which just about sums it up... Just... why brown?!

Forcibly separated festive Toblerone segments. And the accompanying crumbs.

Like Bethlehem from above? I am struggling with Bethlehem?

Bethlehem at night?

Maybe after King Herod’s soldiers have literally turned the town upside town hunting baby Jesus!

Didactylos · 17/10/2018 21:14

robins are belligerent little bastards and fight a lot
this is obviously the end result of mixed Motacilla arts

(and yes, I know its now Erithacus)

JamPasty · 17/10/2018 21:15

Bethlehem at night?! Bwah-haha!

BlackStar7 · 17/10/2018 21:16

Last year my 6 year old son coloured the background in red and then did circles of 'black snow' all over it. 🤦🏻‍♀️ It looked like a ladybird!

Ironfloor269 · 17/10/2018 21:20

Roadkill reindeer?

Charley50 · 17/10/2018 21:26

I thought it was a volcano/baddies mission control that Dr No had just opened to send a rocket into space to destroy the moon! Mwahahahaha!

ApolloandDaphne · 17/10/2018 21:30

I rather love this design and would be glad to receive one in the post at Christmas.

Charley50 · 17/10/2018 21:37

I like it too.

Thatssomebadhatharry · 17/10/2018 21:42

Clearly it’s a neo expressionism piece depicting his inner turmoil and emotional struggle in a post modern society.

OatsBeansBarley · 17/10/2018 21:44

A decoupling space capsule and rocket.

Doritos in brown paper bags.

DSHathawayGivesMeFannyGallops · 17/10/2018 21:48

Two flaming Christmas puddings in the snow?

MemoryOfSleep · 17/10/2018 21:49

Go with the googly eye idea and tell them it's robins. No one will guess Bethlehem at night.

PositivelyPERF · 17/10/2018 21:54

Santa’s poop after eating too many mince pies, during his Xmas present deliveries. He’s hoping the snow will cover it.

SoftSheen · 17/10/2018 21:58

Make sure you get it printed on a tea towel for MIL's Christmas present.
