The first was a commission for the lovely Renee in Canada. She wanted a picture to give to her baby granddaughter Josephine for Christmas, (although if Renee's generosity towards me is anything to go by, I doubt that's all Josephine was given for Christmas, hehehe).
This was a special commission. One that took me ages to know where to begin, one that needed to carry a great deal. But one that I knew needed to be joyous at the same time.
I won't say too much more than that... I'll just show you instead.
The words written on the pages of the books are from this post that Renee wrote about her granddaughter, that to me summed it all up.
I hope Josephine loves it! :)

Wow, that is so so beautiful flossy. I love the cut paper layered effect, and the casual repose of the parents which you have captured so perfectly. What a gorgeous and special present!
That is amazing flossy-p. How could she not absolutely love it. It's incredible.

The work you created for my mom (Renee), my sister and my niece is truly amazing. I noticed the reference to the blog content as well as what I think was a note on our ability and inability to control fate.
It continues to amaze me how artists have the ability to capture the essence of a family unit - the present, past and future through media.
You are truly gifted.
