Holiday Cheer 2019 {6} - Commemorative Art

We had a few BIG changes this year that included moving and selling our first home. It was bittersweet to leave a place we love but it was also pretty exciting to have a new adventure for our family. In the whirlwind of all that was happening, I had the sense of mind to have several works of art created for us!

The first piece was created for a family photo session we had in May. We needed the perfect accent for it to tie it all together. This piece definitely hit the spot! I can't wait to have more pieces created. I have my eye on the children's names in the children's handwriting. Those might be on our Christmas list next year!

The second piece we had done was a watercolor print of our home in Decorah. That alone made it special, but the cherry on top was that it was created by someone who I knew from Luther College! Hannah did an amazing job with the print and it is something that I'll cherish forever!

The last piece we had done was something that I've had my eye on doing for a very long time. I'm talking at least a year! I never felt quite right about having this piece done until we got the photos back from our mini session in May. It was an awesome way to capture a time of our lives that had so much change and so much excitement at the same time! And if you need a way to pass the time, I honestly find it so relaxing to watch this artist's instagram stories where she documents the process of drawing it out, tracing it over with pen, and then paints it with watercolors. It's so cool!
