This is a custom commission for a couple who is about to be engaged. The baseball player and his soon to be bride. I must say the ring is a beauty. I felt a little paranoid having it in my possession.
How creative an idea is that!!! I think this couple is off to a great start when he considers her artistic tastes even in his proposal! Beautiful painting, Michael - what an honor for you to be the chosen artist. :-)
What a wonderful story - a great little painting, and an incredible memory! Beautiful work Michael, I'm just smiling thinking about how thoughtful this is.
MY brother and future SISTER-IN-LAW will love this! I am tearing up out of excitement! I've seen both the ring (and maybe tried it on!!!) and the ball and this painting is perfect. It fits both of their personalities which blend so well together!!!
This has got to be the coolest proposal idea ever!...well next to my proposal on a boat under the Sydney Harbour Bridge :o) Love how the ring seems to really shine!
Michael, this is a great idea for the couple, and the ring really looks like it's glowing. I love all your work because your brushwork and colors are luscious. No matter what the subject is, you paint life into it.
I said yes!! It was the most amazing day and could not have been better! You did an outstanding job on the painting! I absolutely love it and will cherish it for the rest of my life! Thank you so much for creating this for both of us!
Too cool..
ReplyDeleteYou've created a beautiful memory for a clever guy!!
This is really wonderful. How romantic ... and the painting is lovely. Just imagine what a great memory this will leave them for many years!
ReplyDeleteWhat if Julie says no? LOL, just teasing!
ReplyDeleteThis little painting is really done quite well.
The baseball is dingy and weathered while the ring box is slick and new. Good job with that.
The diamonds on the ring appear to glow. Great job with that.
Best wishes to the happy couple!
