Here's another birthday present for another nephew. Nathan is from South Korea, so I used the national flower of Korea—Rose of Sharon, or hibiscus. Nathan is 7 this year, so I used a more manly color palette.
This is a belated first birthday present for my youngest nephew. His mom, my sister, gave me the idea about the snail—she pointed out that kids and snails both leave behind a trail of slime. :) I added the yellow leaves because he has an autumn birthday.
My last post reminded me that there is another invitation project I am working on. The commissioners of my Prairie Smoke and Birch painting from last spring are getting married next summer, and are featuring their artwork in their Save the Dates and invites.
A new Commemorate the Date. You may have noticed the date is six months from now. The bride who commissioned this piece is also using a Commemorate the Date design for her Save the Date cards, and plans to have us make her invitations as well. We are honored!
I am an artist living and working in Minneapolis, MN. I studied illustration at the Savannah College of Art and Design. I do a little freelance illustration and also sell my work from my studio and at art fairs. I work part time as a graphic designer as well.
My husband and I live in the Longfellow neighborhood.
