You may now kiss the bride...


Portrait of Jenn and Dan, October 2010
graphite on bristol


I did this drawing for my cousin Jennifer and her husband Dan. They got married in Hawaii in October. I couldn't go to the wedding, but I had my aunt take plenty of picture so I could do a portrait of them on their wedding day as their wedding present. Jennifer said it made her cry! You can't beat that :)

It's made up nearly entirely of scribbles. It was fun :)
