Santa's Magic
December 2011
It turns out there is naval architecture at the North Pole. You might of thought Santa and those Elves just knew how to build stuff, but the December Laura Turgeon drawing suggests Santa may order plans from Graham Byrnes just like a Pamlico boat builder.
Laura tells us that this drawing was instigated by another Pamlico craftsman – chairmaker Michael Brown. So a salute to Michael for the idea, to Laura for the drawing and to Santa for his managerial skills. Merry Christmas!
| Laura Turgeon and her husband Gil Fontes live in Oriental. When they are not out looking at boats Laura and Gil are often seen with drawing instruments or paint brushes in hand. More of Laura's work can be found at her site LauraTurgeon.com. |
