Since 1919, the New Canaan community has gathered on God`s Acre on Christmas Eve to sing carols around the town Christmas Tree, a tradition started by John E. Hersam, founder of the New Canaan Advertiser. The tradition continues this year : Thursday Dec. 24 at 6:30 pm.
Here is Virgina Taylor`s interpretation of this tradition. As your family gathers this holiday season, stop by Handwright to see many more paintings of New Canaan`s distinct traditions painted by Virgina.

One of our favorite ways to display a work on paper is to have it appear to float above a mat inside a frame. The viewer of the piece gets to see the architecture of the paper vs. the edges being hidden being under a mat. We just completed an elegant piece: a gold painting on deckled paper floated in a black lacquer tray frame with a subtle 22kt gold lip.
