Inspired by . . . an embrace
Inspired by . . . an embrace
Bonnie's prompt for this month's Photo Art Friday is: EMBRACE
"The best thing to hold onto in life is each other." ~ Audrey Hepburn
The figurine in this image is Willow Tree's Promise figurine. My husband gave it to me for my birthday. If you're familiar with Willow Tree you know that the figurines have no facial features. They don't need to. Looking at this figurine you can clearly see the tenderness in the couples embrace. This man cherishes his wife, and in turn, his wife trusts him.
It is a beautiful example of my husband's love for me, and mine for him. He could not have picked a better gift.
I combined this image with a picture of the carnelian heart we bought, together, for our anniversary. It's a beautiful stone, with real value. Another symbol of our love for each other.
Together with Bonnie's lovely Aged Vignette texture I think they make an intriguing collage.
For those who are interested, I listed my process below. Please take a moment to check out the other art in the gallery.
