Comissioned as a surprise gift, based on a photo of his husband’s beloved 200 year old cello.

The customer wasn’t allowed to touch the cello, so our consult was put on hold for a few months. Finally, he found a chance to secretly take photos when his husband left the cello out while going to another room.

Keeping the budget he’d named in mind, we took one more week to go over cropping options and some possible artistic flair, finally settling on this long, narrow design with a subtle deep purple gradient in the background. Both client and husband were delighted!
