Paintings...
















The first ten paintings I did for a friend to give to all of her bridesmaids and house party.  It was such a fun experience.  The bride told me about each of her friends and how special and unique they are.  I was able to draw ideas from what she was telling me and create something personal for each girl.  

The last painting I painted for a friend in College Station.  Trees are very meaningful to her and she had such a beautiful image painted in her mind that she shared with me and then I attempted to create a physical piece of remembrance for her.  

Sometimes just painting commissions can be stressful and difficult...for a number of reasons.  At the same time I think everyone is creative in different ways.  Many people come up with images in their head that they would love to see painted.  I'm glad I get to be apart of other peoples creativeness...actually I've kind of become a little dependent on it!
