Lanie


Artist: Laurise Owen
Size: 3' x 2'
Medium: Canvas, Acrylic, Paper, Ribbons, embellishments, Photoshop
Date: Jan 2010
Title: Lanie
Course: Diploma Graphic Design

I made this artwork for friends, who had their first child in November 09. Precious little Lanie Kate Hyder, was born 8 weeks premature and is much loved and thriving. I chose to cover the letters of Lanie in pretty papers, then embellished them with ribbons, bling etc and added some butterflies too. I painted the canvas in a wash of colour, and stamped Lanie's date of birth on the canvas, embossed the word Baby, and lastly used photoshop to enhance the image.
