Illustration Friday-Soar



These are paintings that I gave to the brides and grooms for recent weddings. Both weddings were on December 29, 2007, and were beautiful in their own unique ways. The paintings are similar but not the same, I played with slightly different painting styles and background colors. In terms of Illustration Friday's theme of "Soar", weddings always make my heart soar, and that's why the subjects of the paintings are birds, because they too, can soar high in the sky.
Congratulations Kat & AJ and Nate and Rin!
