queen tina
i was commissioned to do a piece of art. it's a little bit of long story about how i came to do this for her. this piece is symbolic of teaching someone to play the card game spades and in that game aces are high and can make points. queens are basically no point makers but she thought they were and kept bidding out of her range because she thought her queens were so valuable. we teased her like crazy about it. so when she asked me to do something for her wall i instantly recalled how we laughed and laughed during that card game. so i incorporated that memory into her wall art. she hasn't seen it yet so i'm not sure if she'll catch on to it right away but i'll be seeing her later on today and i can't wait to give it to her!
