Mother & Child
Illustration by Donna Massa
This Illustration is actually a Christmas card. I decided to use this Series in a different way. I wanted to take it one step further by introducing two young girls with another child on the way. This was to symbolize the best gifts of all, having two children and a new born child. However you can interpret this illustration in a few different ways depending on the circumstances. The little girl hugging up to her mother shows a close bond however the youngest little girl may belong to her husband to be along with the new baby she is carrying. Perhaps, both children are hers and the baby she is carrying is her third child. The last scenario, neither of the two girls are her children and they belong to her husband to be and she is having her first new born child. Either way you choose to interpret this illustration being blessed with two angel girls was just not enough, and there is always magic with the number 3!
The bride on this special day is wearing an all white rayon velvet long cape over her wedding gown with a draped hood trimmed in white fox, the same fox used in the muff the youngest Flower Girl is holding. The brides gown is a white strapless embroidered French Alenson lace, umpire body line, full A-line skirt with small pleats starting at the princess bodice seam, flat over tummy with an
Embroidered scalloped trim. The skirt has multiple layers of pure silk chiffon flowing down outlining her body.
The oldest Flower Girl is gazing up at this beautiful bride with much love and excitement. This Flower Girl is wearing a basic light pink pure silk satin dress with a cap sleeve, princess seam waistline bodice with a wide gathered waistline sash. At the center back there is a bow, and long streamers ruffling down her back. Her beautiful full skirt is slightly exaggerated in length as this affect was done on purpose.
The second Flower Girl is also wearing a basic light pink pure silk satin dress with a Sabrina neckline, long fitted sleeves with white lace trim, a princess seem waistline bodice with a wide gathered waistline sash. The skirt also has box pleats starting at the princess seam flat over tummy. The skirt is full and floor length. Both Children are wearing wreaths with baby pink roses, holly berries, and baby’s breath.
There is a small gift lying on top of the fox muff from the girls to the bride this is their gift to her on this beautiful Christmas Wedding Day…🖤
