Pichi and Aida loved that much their picture that...

...they decided to give the same present they had received to a very beloved couple of friends, Laura and Kike, also about to get married.

They both love travelling. First "I love you" was by phone in "Cerro de Santa Catalina" in Gijon. They both love scuba-dive and travelin. The "yes, I do" was in Central Park in NYC....

And a couple of details more...but we have to keep some secrets.... what would be the story behind that red pullover...?

This time, I am going to show you the "making off"...

Step 1 - Chat, brainstorming about the persons, feeling to express, details to make the picture theirs and only theirs, some photos

Step 2 - Agreeing the concept - I develop  a draft to discuss with the King "customer"...I found this step is reallzy useful, as when sharing the draft with the customer, he or she will get a better idea on how the picture will look like and in many cases he co-creates this concept, adding a few more details and changes to make it reallz "customized".

Step 3 - The picture...

40x50 - Acrylic with ink and Feld

Step 4 - The delivery - From Essen to Madrid - via Milton Keynes - with DHL and lots lots of love

Another very special present from a really thankful husband

This time, we want to express that... this is a new stage in common life but only the beginning of many years and great experinces together. 

He, innovation manager, doctor, IT ...rational guy? Yeah...but with a great heart, unbeatable empathy and super- generous smile. She, caring, sensible, emotional, profesional tennis player, music lover ... the perfect fit to our assumedly rational guy.

Lover of the DIY, he really put his time and effort also in this task!
