This one has a pretty unique story. A good friend I once worked with for many years and his wife lost their twin baby boys due to premature birth complications. It goes without saying it was tragic and they were devastated (to this day when I look at the pictures of the funeral, which I did often as reference for this, they make me cry). He asked me to do a drawing to frame and give to his wife of this sort of nature, and I really dragged my feet for a few reasons, mostly because I was nervous to tackle such a personal and sensitive subject, but I finally followed through, and he was so pleased, and I am told she was even more so (it looked really nice matted and framed). I just hoped to do some justice to the sacredness of their experience and hopefully help in some way in their grieving process. The original, much grander concept was pared down to an appropriately black and white image of the two of them holding the tiny infants, while their fully-grown sons comfort them from the Spirit World. It's very hard for them, but they know they'll all be together again. (For more information, see here: [link] )

This is beautiful! I myself am LDS, and love the concept. Do you take requests? I would love to see a Temple drawing or something of that nature

Thank you!ย  To answer your question, I don't make any promises, since my schedule (and interest level, ha) has something to do with my availability to fulfill requests, but I'm always glad to hear suggestions.ย  In the meantime, as for your desire to see a temple drawing, I actually have done a couple of them already!ย  Check them out here and here . I have also done a couple of Savior and Nativity and Book of Mormon inspired pieces, so just browse through my gallery and you'll find them!

Thanks again.

Thank you! They really liked it, hopefully it helps in what I'm sure will be a continued grieving process.

That was so nice of you. Your reason for making this alone would make this a favorite, even if it weren't the masterpiece it is. Thank you for sharing this. ^_^

It was the least I could do! They were so very (understandably) heartbroken. You are welcome, and thank you.
