Happy June everyone, which as everyone knows, along with being the start to summer, is also LGBT Pride Month. Considering our president’s recent show of support of same-sex marriages and in New York, the wedding of a prominent elected official (City Council Speaker and mayoral hopeful Christine Quinn) I felt the urge to illustrate two fabulous lesbian brides. (I also considered illustrating two men getting married, but let’s be honest–gowns are way more fun to paint–and wear!–than tuxes or suits.)
And after doing this, I know I’d love to do even more wedding illustrations for things like invitations or save-the-date notices. Hmm, I really need to set up a shop section on this site, or at least set up an Etsy page.
And before skipping off to see what’s new at Sunday Sketches, I’d also like to give a shout-out to fellow illustrator Veron Andre who’s just started a Tumblr that features the work of different illustrators along with his own pieces. I’m so proud to be featured on it, and you can check out the Fillustrashion blog here.
this is good painting this types of painting is done only with more practice. I think it would be awesome to illustrate invitations with your beautiful work!
love your work so much, is in every little way awesome and gorgous!!!
this is very nice drawing. drawing is not done by every one because it is very hard but now i can say that you can design drawing very well.
Absolutely beautiful brides with stunning gowns and a lovely summer sea atmosphere!
Gorgeous! I want to go to this wedding! I think doing illustrated invitations and cards for weddings is a great idea. Your style is perfect for that.
I knew immediately when I saw your painting that they were a couple. Bravo to you for posting this and supporting gay/lesbian marriage!
It’s beautifully done, lovely gowns, and oh so timely perfect! As in it’s about time!
This is beautiful…its not legal here in Australia sadly….we all know someone who is gay or lesbian…it doesn’t make sense its not legal…as i said..i love this…yes..wedding invitations etc…..xxx

Great painting. The blue band of water really brings it together. Happy Painting.
I was a bit confused when I saw this, wondering which one’s the bride…they both are! Happy for them and cute illustration!
Beautiful ilutración, although I think will that two women if they marry not be adorn the two dressed, I’ve seen some gay wedding and in general one is dressed in classic bride, and the other with white short suit.
