Did you know that in the 1930s a manufacturer of toilet bowl brushes began dyeing bristles green and assembling them into artificial Christmas trees. These new artificial trees were especially popular in Britain, which had lost many of its trees during WWI. Just goes to show that necessity is the mother of invention. Because who knew that they would still be popular all these years later! This painting was a joy to paint. Thanks to all who stopped by to watch.
