Lovebirds kissing

This is one of my very first portrats I did with my wacom. I painted this wedding portrait of two dear friends at their wedding. The wedding was beautiful and inspiring as both found new love together. Both had lost former spouses, and thought they'd never find love again. They held a huge wedding with friends and family that came from all over to celibrate this wonderful occasion. Here's hope we all are as lucky in love as they are. I used airbrush, assorted pastels and chalks to create from scratch this portrait. Not a photo manipulation.

Tender and outstanding work Terry

Artist Reply: Thank you Thea! It was so wonderful to be able to attend this lovely couples wedding. It was a huge wedding and reception, and very sweet. I took photos and kept catching the bride especially beaming smiles at her groom. I've never seen 2 so happy and excited to get married.
