The picture above the doorway is a version of Connecticut Valley which became a print. The dog was our then shelter dog called Shadow. The Christmas before when I was commissioned to do the card for the Clintons I was given the range of the White House to see how the decorations looked and was almost arrested by the Secret Service – I guess I looked dangerously nosy.
The card and the print of it was such a success, we were asked to do the Blue and the Green Room for two subsequent Christmases.

Here's a link to an article in this morning's Washington Post about White House Christmas cards, including Tom's card for the Clintons in 1995. This article includes a mention of Tom, and a photograph of the card.
