Every now and then I’m asked to paint the entire cast of a TV show or movie, but never for “real people” This set features an entire wedding party of a dear customer of mine. The idea was proposed early on this year, but due to some unforeseen circumstances involving a spur of the moment trip overseas to visit my mom, a handful of projects to crank out, a bout of ill health, and some devastating news and events from cherished family members, I only managed to finish this set a mere 2 hours before it was due to be picked up. I really have no excuse to not finish this set in time since I had months to work on, so I shouldn’t be proud of myself for actually finishing it at all…but I am. I want to thank my cat for keeping me on task. The boy, who desperately wants to be fed, makes sure I don’t oversleep and thus I managed to stay on course.
The main doll is enormous, to reflect the work of a doll maker who had created the one my doll was modelled after.
The rest of the wedding party:
This also includes the three grown children who were obviously not in the wedding party but why not?
Happy wedding anniversary, Mark and Kat!
