Surprise... I love you!

Back the end of May, one of my good friends, Jody, called me wanting to surprise his wifey with a personalized anniversary gift.  He wanted a script painting of the lyrics to the song she walked down the aisle to in their wedding.  (So sweet!)  He said he knew she wanted neutral colors, wanted a triptych, and she wanted it to be cursive script, but that was about all the info he had. I got to work, and this is what I came up with: 

This was before I added the glittery words and swirls, but you get the idea. (Excuse the messy art room!)

She LOVED it! Jody said she immediately hung them up over their fireplace when they got home and started taking pictures. This one and the one that follows is one she took that night. She is a blogger too, and she blogged about it. Check her out at ambervues.blogspot.com ! She's got such a sweet perspective on life, love, and her family. You'll love it!




It was an honor to paint this piece for my good friends' big day. Thanks to Jody and Amber for letting me do this for you!

T-minus 3 days...


Well, in just 3 short days, I will be no longer "working for the man", I will be self-employed which is very exciting! That's pretty much it. I just wanted to exclaim my excitement!
