Amyjeen and Andy

NEW PIECE!!

Amyjeen and Andy are getting married today (May 1st.)

Here's a piece that I did for them for their wedding day. Amy choked and held back the tears when she got it, which is exactly the sort of thing my artwork apparently does: causes people to cry. Probably the reason I don't get invited to many BBQs or children's parties.

Either way, I'm available for commissions. Email karlchristian@gmail.com for details.
