I finished this piece over the weekend. I had to wait until today to photograph her as we have received so much snow in the past few days, I needed some sunlight! And I may need to wait until spring to photograph her properly as there is so much snow now, the white on white is hard to see. This piece was inspired by a couple of different resources. First, my mother suggested that it would be a good idea to have a 'Bride' for the Main Street Arts Festival, with summer weddings coming in May and June. The second is a dress that Kate Hudson wore to the SAG awards. It is this really sexy number that dips down her back and she wears a necklace backwards to hang down her back rather than down the front. This is in part why I added the beads at the neckline. I found the china plates with the gold rim at a thrift store in Carbondale, CO. Always on the look out!
