I have been meaning to do a bit of wedding art for some time. I keep being asked for wedding cards and I just didn’t have any!
I recently went to a wedding and when I received my pretty paper napkin at the reception I knew that it was going to go home with me and end up in a piece of art, and what better than a wedding piece?
As you can see, I persuaded my family to save their napkins as well! Motivation for tidy eating!
Here is an in progress shot…. you can see that I am still playing with her hair, and haven’t done a lot of shading yet.
Since this was done from a photo, it gave me the idea that it would be perfect to do a commissioned piece with napkins or fabric from the wedding and colors and seasons….I could even incorporate bits of the wedding invitation…. What a perfect anniversary gift!
As for my cards…. what should the inside message be?
If you are interested in this 11 x 14 original on paper, or in commissioning a piece, email me at victoryrd@hotmail.com.

You’ve done a lovely job with this piece. The napkins are perfect collage material for the subject matter. I am so glad your family eat tidily.
