T'was the night before Christmas and all through the house, not a creature was stirring. Not even a mouse. Inspired by this poem that I learnt as a child, this picture is about Christmas Eve and how, when you are small you try to stay awake to see if you can sneak a peek at Santa when he comes to fill your stocking with wonderful presents. Try as hard as you can though you always drift off to sleep, dreaming you can hear sleigh bells. When you wake you find the presents at the foot of your bed put there as if by magic. 30 hours to create, using Poser and Photoshop.
