One of the thing I love about doing commission work is that it pushes me to try things I've never done before. I can also see the fruit of working at Painting With A Twist for 4 years in that I'm not afraid to try and I trust my skill. Again, I can see my Lord's hand in this!!!
An old friend from middle school/high school asked that I do a grouping of 6 specific Louisiana themed paintings to make her Chicago home reflect her childhood one. Can I paint a pelican? Sure! A magnolia? Why not! (With fingers crossed and a prayer!)
"Se ma mezon": Creole for "home"
Louisiana iris: state wildflower
Brown pelican: state bird
Bald cypress: state tree
"Union, Justice, Confidence": state motto
Magnolia: state flower
Thanks, Shea, old friend, for the opportunity!
Other friends, what can I do for you?
