Santa Claus with Skis and Cardinal

A Whimsical folk art Santa from Ilona Steelhammer.

Self-taught artist Ilona Steelhammer gets many of her ideas from seeing the joys of children and families sharing the affections of country life. A native of Centralia, Washington, Ilona feels much of her work comes from the local countryside. She describes her artwork as “common folk”, reflecting the warmth and love of nurturing families. The joy and happiness of country living and the celebration of life are truly reflected in her handcrafted style.

“Santa Claus with Skis and Cardinal” measures approximately 9” and is made of hand-painted wood. It has a metal hanger and is signed on the back by Ilona!
