Stationery: Kara's Wreath
One of my favorite recent commission pieces was this set of stationery for a student at the school where my husband teaches. While I don't know the student herself very well, her sister is a real treasure and that fact alone made this project a real treat.
It was also fun to get back into painting—this was the first of a string of custom watercolors this past month and after the long haul of graphic design work, the change was refreshing!

As with my other custom stationery, I have put this piece up on my Etsy shop and it is very customizable—the colors of the flowers range from yellow, to pink, to blue, to the purple you see above (and the name color is editable as well)

Custom Portrait: Mr. & Mrs. Polumbo
Don't you just love this couple? I was asked to paint this for their first anniversary last weekend, working from two photos showing off their signature dance moves! I just thought that was the best idea, and it was so much fun to create for them.

Honoring an Anniversary
How adorable is this couple?
Seriously, this piece was a ton of fun to make. They are so.stinkin.cute.
This piece was created as an anniversary gift, ordered by a girlfriend of the bride—how sweet is that?

Custom Stationery: Willow Trees
About a month or two ago I was asked to design and paint some custom stationery for a friend of mine:
It was really fun for me to get a chance to work with someone I know personally—since at more than half of my "business" dealings are with people that I have never personally met, it was a special treat to be able to talk to this client in person :)

Bridal Portrait: Rebekah
I feel like most of my posts have been wedding related lately! (and I can't say that really bothers me, sorry...kinda). Here's a watercolor of my dear friend who recently got married.
This piece was a lot of fun—there is something so soft and graceful in bridal portraits.
Know a blushing beauty who recently got married (or is preparing to go down the isle)?? You can get your own custom portrait for them HERE!

OOTDsketches (7)
Not as many sketches this week—our high school basketball team made it to the state finals (and won, for the 3 year in a row!) and so we were spending all our extra time driving or screaming our boys on!

A Castle In The Sky
A little while ago I was asked to paint a Scottish castle. Due to the small size of the image I was working off of (it was from a phone and only about an inch and a half square), this was more difficult than I had originally expected.
The client asked for the piece to be black and white, though I did create a version in color for my own benefit—I just love color too much to let it slip completely by me!

My first attempt at watercolor and architecture combined. I am not much of an architectural artist, though it is entertaining when I do have the opportunity to experiment with it!
