Wedding in Hawaii



Often people will ask me if I will paint from photos. This painting was done for an anniversary gift. The couple was married in Hawaii ten years ago.




She wanted to give a very special gift to her husband for their anniversary.





She gave me about 12 photos taken where they got married at sunset.






I studied the pictures for a long time, and put the scene together as I imagined it might have been, had I been there.




She is thrilled with the painting, and can't wait for their anniversary to give it to her husband.

This is from the email she sent:
"Hi Karen!

I can't even come up with the proper words to tell you how much I love the painting that you did for our upcoming 10yr anniversary! I'm so excited to give it to Mark. I drove home after meeting you just thinking how incredibly blessed that I am!

Thank you so much again! I love it!!!!"


And I am thrilled that she is thrilled!

First of all, I have never seen anything so beautiful and creative. I especially love your mural labeled
'Long Beach/Taste of the Coast.' I really enjoy the colors you use because they seem to draw me in and give me a happy feeling.
Thank you for sharing and if I would like a painting for my best friend's wedding, is there a way to get in direct contact with you?
