Spent 22 hours over 3 days to finish this surprise birthday commission carrying lots of love from a beautiful group of friends to a special person.
It was my first creative commission based on a concept/subject.
To me, it is always a wonderful feeling when someone purchases a painting I completed. It is a magic moment of connection between the collector and me or at least my momentary reality at the time of creation.
Working on a creative commission is the opposite. It felt like peering into the person’s world in my imagination. In this one, I saw warmth, brightness and fun.
Thanks for sharing that energy with me Koko
