I've been holding onto this commission for a few weeks, waiting to share it and I'm so excited you get to see it now!
It's a wedding gift from one spouse to the other and it captures all of the food-themed nick names they've used for each other over the years!
It was such a special piece for me to get to create and I wish Alex and Dan all the happiness in the world in this new chapter together!
Scroll down to take a look at the painting process.
It all starts with an idea and sketch!
Once the final version of the sketch is approved, I create the outline for the final piece
Next I fill in the color blocks using vibrant saturated colors to help the whole piece to pop and have a warm glow
Then each part of the painting get painted in detail
Until each piece can shine on its own!
Finally I added the background to pull it all together.
I love painting commissions because I get to hear about the small ways that a shared love of food can make a relationship and a home a warmer place.
What are the special ways that food brings your family or relationships together?
I am still taking holiday commissions for this season, but I have limited spots available.
