Cousins!

My cousin Diane asked me to paint her son and daughter's names. Since I tend to correspond through email  it was a little hard to understand what she wanted done with the letters, and it was hard to understand what I had envisioned for them. I knew that she would want simple and classic, something that would grow with her kids, but with these letters being so visual it was hard to be clear as to what the both of us were saying. After countless emails and pictures, we finally found what would make them perfect! I am so happy we did.

I don't want to have unhappy customers. I want everyone to be as picky as possible before I send them.

Diane did a great job of being honest with me. They were both challenging and fun!

Baby Abigail

One of my first friends from when I moved to Germany, wanted to buy a baby shower gift for her good friend. This friend just happens to be Levi's first Pre-School teacher. After having FOUR boys, she was growing her first GIRL! I was very excited to work some magic and I loved the inspiration I had to paint these letters.


Abigail was born just a week or two after she received the letters. Just in time!
