My Art: Norwegian Bride

   I thought I'd share with you all one of my latest Scandinavian paintings--- this piece is called "Norwegian Bride" and shows the traditional Norwegian wedding costume and crown in an old fashioned folk style. I'm pleased with now it turned out and went a bit crazy with the flowers, haha!

   You can read more about the piece and the tradition of Norwegian wedding crowns HERE at my art blog.

 Hope you have a great weekend!

      Ah! I just in the artists "About" section, that she was inspired by her Kristin doll! So I guess she was channelling Kristin! Love it! <3 Very cool.
