Happy Feast Day of Saint Nicholas! God bless you all!
To commemorate the feast of Saint Nicholas, here’s a free coloring page of Daisy in a Christmas Stocking, one of the images from Daisy Coloring Book IV: Christmas 2019:
I drew a similar drawing when I was first starting out here on DA. Some of you have been with me since then. Here’s a throwback:
I really like the idea of the mischievous chinchilla in a Christmas stocking. I love chinis, but I’m not sure if I would want to find Daisy in my Christmas stocking, clicking her incisors together and looking at me through her furrowed eyebrows, plotting my imminent demise.

Information about Saint Nicholas, who was orphaned at an early age and gave away his family wealth (he attempted to do so in secret, hence the tradition of secret gift giving on his feast day), became bishop of Myra at a young age, faced persecution for his faith, defended children and all those who were suffering and in need, attended the council of Nicea (was part of the writing of the Nicene Creed and . . . strongly . . . opposed the heretic Arius):
