How The Spike Stole Christmas

All the Ponies down in Ponyville like Christmas a lot...

Here is my submission for Week 25 (!) of as well as the Equestria Daily December Draw-Off [link]

The theme for Week 25 was "Draw a Pony Inspired by a Book," so with Christmas fast approaching I thought I would find inspiration from Dr. Seuss' classic book "How the Grinch Stole Christmas," casting Greedy Spike as he appeared in the new episode "The Secret of My Excess" as the Grinch with Derpy as his put-upon dog, er, pony, Max. I'm amazed that I've been taking part in this ATG Alumni community every week for 25 weeks now and almost six months since my first entry into the Newbie Artist Training Grounds over at Equestria Daily. It's been a fun and occasionally aggravating experience (as all art can be), but I'm still so glad just to be a part of this extremely talented Brony community. Confound these Ponies, they continue drive me to draw, and I wouldn't have it any other way!
