 My two most recent wedding dress commissions have finally been given as gifts to the fabulous brides, so I can finally share them here; hooray! You can view some pics of the dresses, the paintings, and a bit of info about each of the gifts below... Commission #1: Wedding gift from a BFF The above pic was just sent to me this past weekend--it's the gorgeous bride Stacey with her wedding gift from Lauren (friend on the left in the image below). How sweet is that pic? I love it *SO* much! Lauren contacted me way back in February about creating this gift for Stacey, and after sending me some snapshots of the dress and the link to the dress on the website, I created the following painting:   Commission #2: Bridal Shower gift from two bridesmaids to the bride-to-be This painting was another gift from two sweet + thoughtful friends, and it was a bit more of a challenge to paint because we didn't have a link to the dress online to work with, just a bunch of pics of the bride wearing the dress at her fittings. The good news is that one of the commissioners had seen it in-person, so was able to give me lots more information about the dress, like the fact that it had more of a pink/blush undertone than shown in the pics, etc. It was a super fun dress to paint (so many details and layers!); you can see the final painting below.   Want to see more dress paintings (or learn more about commissioning your own)? Check out my wedding dress page on my painting website. Thanks to the lovely ladies who thought of me for these special gifts and CONGRATS to both of the brides pictured above!  Comments are closed.
