The first of two Christmas theme from 2017. This one was only shown on my homepage on Christmas. Cleo was the choise as shown character, because cats are always great for art. As for the decoration I have to say: Take a look at the dark gift and the small badge. You can see the Black Mesa logo from the Half-Life game series. It’s clear what’s in the gift. The crowbar also from Half-Life.
Since years Cleo and Alica is always again drawn with Half-Life themes by me. Why this is so? It is as it is 🙂

Done in 2017 with different pencils and a stron red crayon color in round about 10 hours.
