….Or is it the weary? Whatever the case, I’m beginning to really wish someone could clone me so I could get more stuff done, or at least find a way to an extra six hours in the day. Not that I’m complaining; I’m keeping busy with a lot of exciting creative endeavors and projects that are allowing me to branch out. One of the more recent ones that I recently finished was designing a Thank-You card for my friends Kelly and Charles’ wedding. They were the ones that got married in the stunning Palmer House Hilton. Anyway, the lovely couple asked me if I would be able to design something to express their appreciation for people who took the time out to share in their special event. I wanted to do something classy, in the spirit of the beautiful surroundings of their ceremony but yet do an abstraction that was very personal to them:
I placed their initials within he petals beyond the heart of the design that says “Thank You” and put their last name on the outer-perimeter. Can you see them? I really like incorporating lettering into the art to the point that it’s a teaser for the viewer to try and find it within the design (I’m kind of a closet typographer).
More projects are on the way. Stay tuned!
I love it! Yeah, this is your thing with embedding words into the art. It tends to give the message more impact. Words are powerful.
Jaimee, your talent overwhelms me and I am striving to be more creative and you inspire me to do such in my photography. I am pretty proud of my recent work w the honeymoon photos.
Your card design is PERFECT for us! The “hidden” name and the juxstaposition is just awesome, I hope our guests receiving the thank you will appreciate it as much as we do. We love you, you awesome arteest (hee hee had to spell it like I was saying it in my head).
Ani: I agree; words are powerful and be quite an artform.
Kelly: Wow, you words are so kind! I treasure them. I’m so glad that you have found another creative medium with which to express yourself. You should be proud of your wedding pictures; they are beautiful and transport me to the beauty and tranquility of Puerto Rico. I can’t wait to see more.
I’m so pleased that you and Charles are happy with the design. I was inspired by the classiness and the intimacy of your wonderful ceremony.
I love it! What a great opportunity to share and expose your gift amongst friends.
Keep up the good work!!!!!!!!
