Two-lips

My theme is really just making artwork that I wanted to make as gifts, unfulfilled promises to people. The first piece is for my roommate of 3 years at Adrian College, Lindsay, and her new husband Chris. They got married in December and I've started three different paintings for them as their wedding present, all of which got painted over after getting frustrated. I wanted to make something sweet yet simple, something that reminded me of love, growth, and elegance. I think these tulips are going to come out nicely and I really hope they like them. Lindsay put up with a tiny dormroom stuffed with art projects, paint and charcoal covering the floor---I'm happy to give her a finished product. Since this piece is bigger than what I've been working with, it's taking me longer. This has been a crazy week for me too, between going to Adrian for the weekend, working really hard on a Celtic art class that I had to teach at my church, walking dogs and much more. Check back for the finished piece in the next day or two!
