another wonderfully cute illo just right for christmas time. Santas not in the elf business if some one wants an elf its every elf for itself cause u know santa isnt giving any away. i f u want one come and get it is what santa would say lol plus 1st ud have to find there location up there and all, might not be worth the elf after all to much cold and all.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could all have 'little helpers'?

Good old Santa, he has a busy time just now :-) Lovely image with a warm atmosphere.

In Denmark we don't call his helpers at the photo elves, but "nisser", and they don't have ears like that, more normally as human beings have.

I really think, they're the same.

Nice illustration!That is a very cool take on helpers. But I thought "santa's little helpers" was carpet dope. :) At least that is what Mic said. As always, awesome work.

Ah, just the Christmas cheer I needed.

I like the elf double checking the toys as Santa makes his list, and a little elf wrapping each one as it comes down the conveyor belt.

Everything in this piece is full of fun and the style is unique and warm as always!
