But Coronet predicts that it is the first of many for this up-and-coming young artist who hails from McGehee, Ark. Lockhart now lives in Chicago and he painted our Christmas cover last summer when the Windy City's thermometers registered 95 degrees. So his Saint Nicholas is in shirt sleeves for good reason. Lockhart's friend, Dave Vernon, an art salesman, agreed to act as model only on condition that he wouldn't have to don Santa's usual North Pole attire.
