"Daddy" - In this first piece, I first wanted to draw on the prodigal story from the female perspective hence the "prodigal daughter". But even more important I wanted to highlight the relationship between a daughter and her daddy. Why? Because I have the most amazing daddy of my own. I know that no matter where I go or what choices I make, my Daddy will always be there to welcome me home with open arms and a joyful heart. Even though the persons in this image are very dear family friends my Daddy was the inspiration.
"Returned" - Verse 2 of Luke 15 was the inspiration for this piece. I was struck by the depth of emotion of the father as his son returned home. The father had accepted the fact that his son was dead. Then to see his son returned to him fully alive called for nothing less than celebration.
Results - I didn't win my division but I was able to sell "Daddy" to the precious family that this daddy and daughter belong as well as a second commission. "Returned" did not sell but is available for purchase. Please contact me if you are interested in either of these pieces. They are both 16x20 gallery-wrapped canvases from the incomprobable vendor Pixel2Canvas.
