I finished this locket a couple months ago, but just today realized I never posted it to my blog, so here you go.
These mini-paintings created in brown ink on watercolor paper are each about 3/4″ across and 1″ tall. The oval filigree locket which holds the paintings is 1.5″ tall and 1.25″ wide when closed.
This was created on commission.
As an historical reenactor and steampunk enthusiast, I use my knowledge of historic garments and research to create whatever I envision. Every item is custom designed and drafted, so anything is possible, from full historic accuracy in any period, to stage or costume quality garments, or entirely new fashions based closely or loosely on historic designs. Examples of my past work are displayed in this gallery.
