Merry Christmas!

"Brother"

















The day I decided I was going to paint Josh with his tuba I remembered he had a band concert that night. "How perfect!" I thought. After his concert I had a little photoshoot with him off to the side. He thought I was being goofy but the whole time I had a secret plan :). I caught some cool shots and was off to my apartment to start right away. I love my little brother so much and thoroughly enjoyed painting this special gift for him. Love you buddy!



















"Home"


















This season has been quite an adventure for my dad and step-mom, Shantelle. They have been trying to adopt for over a year now and if you ever adopted or tried it is quite a trip. They finally got the opportunity to adopt a sibling group of 3 and they jumped at the offer. Even then, the road was a little difficult because nothing was set in stone. The day they both said "ok, whatever happens happens we will accept the outcome," is when everything changed. Minutes after their surrender they got a phonecall. It was THE phonecall. They were to be James, Taylor, and Edward's new parents. (This was actually the same day my brother's band concert was that I shot his pics for the painting above! What a crazy day you know?!) Anyways this painting is called "Home" just for them and it's a picture of us all walking in a wheat field just enjoying eachother. Merry Christmas guys I love yous.
