Frozen Planet Christmas Cards

"If Antarctica were music it would be Mozart. Art, and it would be Michelangelo. Literature, and it would be Shakespeare. And yet it is something even greater; the only place on earth that is still as it should be. May we never tame it."
Andrew Denton




This year I decided that, as a someone with a degree in Illustration, I should really design my own Christmas cards. But, as my friends know, I'm not a massively Christmassy person. All that red and green cliche stuff, that's not me. I would have painted from the nativity scene, but it's been so overdone and I couldn't find a new angle for it. So I was watching Frozen Planet one day, and that inspired me for these wintery scenes. Not massively Christmassy, but a little bit different. What do you think?
