And as you may or may not know, this phrase might make sense for my blogging habits, but it's originally from one of my favorite children's books. This has come up between my husband (who has never heard of the book, weirdo) and I because, as many of you already know, we are very soon going to have a ton of children's books taking over... and children's clothes... and children's, well, EVERYTHING, because sometime around the end of September/ beginning of October, we are expecting a baby of our very own :D Yes, it's a HUGE surprise, but we're pretty excited.
Scrambling to make things work for my fall brides has been a nightmare, and I want to apologize again to each and every one of you! The nightmare has not been you wonderful, awesome, supportive ladies- the nightmare has much more been my own guilt and sadness that I will not be able to enjoy your special days with you. My hope for each of you is that you will have the most beautiful, romantic days possible!
The upside to having a very mono-like first trimester is that I did not plan a lot of portrait sessions, etc, so now I'm doing a lot of focusing on my art. This has been fun! It's always been a goal of mine to really establish myself as an artist. I guess it's the Renaissance Lady in me- when I'm hired to create portraits of my clients, I see it as just that- a work of creation, a work of art. Instead of a paintbrush, I have a camera and a digital darkroom.
Anyhow, I say all that to say this: I love creating art, and I've really enjoyed creating more 'Gallery' pieces lately.
So since this whole ramble is worthless without pictures, here is my latest piece of art, created with the likeness of the gorgeous Tamara.
