It is my dear friend, Matt’s birthday, so I thought I would share the presents I gave him this past Christmas and I am so very proud of them.
The pictures are very special bc they are Matt’s own work, that I took and digitally inked and painted. I wanted to add to his work to show him how beautiful it is. It was a great way to learn to use watercolors and I was amazed by how they turned out.
The custom is also something I was very excited about. I modeled after his favorite artist, but also wanted to make it my own and I think Cotton Candie fits that bill well.
I have been experimenting with crystals for a while. It was pretty hard making all the letters for crybaby, so I will probably never do that many pieces for something again. Also forgot to take pictures of the Jupiter symbols I did in green for him.. :\
The necklace is an oil diffuser I painted in the iconic style of the his fav girl, Sailor Moon. The candles are Audrey Hepburn and the Akira one was for another friend.
