Kimberly spoke to me early in her wedding plans and asked if she could send me some flowers from her personal garden as well as her wedding bouquet. I thought this was a great idea and keepsake for her wedding day. She had a Cape Cod themed wedding which turned out beautifully with the colors of her flowers. This is a 18 x 24 canvas.
Besides ordering a painting for her and her husband she had me make one with their invitation for her parents to keep. This is a 12 x 12.

Julia & Robert - June 9, 2012
A 14 x 18 canvas was chosen for the bride and groom's painting. I added their monogram in the upper right hand corner and a piece from the quote they had in their program.
A parent painting was made on a 12 x 12 canvas with the invitation included.The background colors in both paintings were taken from the wedding program colors.

Amber's Laundry Room
One of the projects while visiting my niece, Amber, was to paint her laundry room. She thought it would be nice to add a couple of blue birds to distract from the outlets. Now she has a little bit of sunshine when she walks into the room.

A Special Memorial For Amber - Home Sweet Home
My niece, Amber, just bought a new home and she wanted something special to hang on one wall. I took an old window and painted it robin's egg blue then pressed and dried some of my mother's garden flowers to add. My mother passed away last November. She loved hummingbirds and butterflies not to mention puttering in her gardens. I am so excited to give this to her!
Ashley & Brian's Shades of Purple
The different shades of purple roses, lilies and lysianthus are set off with a few white roses. These flowers press very nicely and look wonderful in a painting.
Here is Ashley's wedding bouquet. This will give you an idea of how the color of the flowers change after being pressed.
Bernadette's Paris Themed Wedding
The bride had a Paris themed wedding so her best friend is going to surprise her with this wedding bouquet painting. It is done on a 12 x 16 canvas. I did the background and Eiffel Tower theme image first then applied the wedding flowers over it. The bride had a beautiful rose colored rosary wrapped around her flowers so I added three little studs in the center of three flowers in the same color.
