Portrait of Emily

I had the privilege of creating this portrait of Emily as a Christmas present for Ryan's wife. Unfortunately, the surprise got leaked but she loved it!

 

Here's what Ryan had to say "I have been a fan of Mike's work for a long time and after our Christmas shoot with our daughter Emily I felt like I had the perfect picture to be made into a portrait in his amazing style. While I spilled the beans on the Christmas present early, my wife loves the portrait. Mike was able to capture both the physical details of Emily, but also her joyful disposition. We are thrilled to have this keepsake marking Emily's first birthday and second Christmas".

Tattoo?

Do you have any tattoo's? Of what? Where? Would you get them again? Is there a special meaning behind them or was it on a whim? I don't have any tattoos as I'm a whimper, but if I ever did get one, I finally know what it would be. The word "Beloved" - as a reminder of my true identity & how God sees me.

Christmas cats in the mail

Way back in the day, long before email and the internet, people wrote letters. By hand. I had a few "pen pals" back in high school / college and used to draw all over the envelopes for people. It was a fun little surprise for them.

 

Serving people with art can take many forms. Today, I'm mailing out a card with a little Christmas cat drawing. I hope it brings smiles 😸!

 

What is one simple way you can use your gifts to bring someone a smile this holiday season?

 

If it's just "something you do" - it might be closer at hand than you think!

Rogue One

I haven't mentioned anything about #rogueone yet, but I'm excited for this next #starwars movie. And most excited for more of this guy, #darthvader in his bad hay day. Are you going to see it? What do you hope for in it? #starwarsfan #art #digitalart #artist
