Artist statement
“It’s been a wild month. I can’t describe my feelings right now. This acrylic painting took me 3 years to complete of my wife and I, which shows us in a place we love and had celebrated our honeymoon. This is the piece a gallery originally wanted me to ship to feature and put up for sale in a physical space. I turned that down because I would never let this go. It’s way too special to me. With that said, this year of completion marks a huge milestone and the reason why I chose for this piece to be featured. Happy 10 years of being together, and 5 years of marriage to my wife 😘
