Shanti Claus Holiday Card

When I made the first pen and ink drawing of this card many years ago, I was trying for a mashup of the Santa Claus character, who represents secular Christmas, with a grounded spirituality that crosses religious boundaries to arrive at a definition of GOD as LOVE. I used to refer to this card as 'ShalOMerry.' Now I call it Shanti Claus.
Picture
Shanti Claus, in his new full-color manifestation (since 2020), is brown. He used to be as white as the paper he was printed on, but now, thanks to the miracle of digital printing, I can make him any color I want. And I want him to be brown. I want him to be brown because he is a World Spirit who represents humanity. I have a feeling that if you took all the people in the world and mixed up their colors like paint, the result would be a lovely shade of brown.

Even though the words Om and Shanti and Namasté are from Sanskrit, and Shalom is Hebrew, Shanti Claus has no ethnicity or nationality. Shanti Claus is a cosmic guru (as well as a right jolly old elf).

The message of the Shanti Claus card is that what is divine in human experience is interconnectedness and love. God is One and God is Love... not some old white guy who looks like Santa Claus in his nightgown.

I decided not to go ahead with the printing this year. Sorry! I didn't get enough orders to make it work. If you are interested in purchasing these cards if and when I reprint them, please let me know in the contact form.

    I welcome your thoughts...
