In the spirit of the approaching Valentines weekend, here is some love themed art.
This is an illustration I did for Kristin and Reagan of Kristin Newman Designs – an event planning and design firm based in Charleston, SC. Not only did Reagan and I both graduate from W&L, but we’re sisters of the key. Kappa konnections!
So it was only fitting that we should collaborate on this little project. This sketch is a portrait of one of the brides whose wedding they recently styled and planned and they’re going to give it to her as a thank you gift.
Isn’t she lovely? And aren’t Kristin and Reagan lovely for thinking of this unique thank you gift? You too could be this thoughtful…. just email me! I love painting wedding gowns!


Very pretty! She looks like Carrie Underwood!
hah i hadn’t thought of that – but she does sort of! thanks!!
Amazing! This makes me want to get married again…
haha! it really is a shame that a party that great only happens once
Inslee- Kristin and Reagan are fabulous and this was the perfect gift for me!!! Thank you for doing such a great job…it is the best and so are you! You are a talent!
So happy you like it! Your wedding look was gorgeous!
I just gave your info to one of my bride and grooms today. I thought one of your sketches would make the perfect wedding invite!
Hi Inslee, this illustration is — WOW.
You never fail to inspire me! Everything you create is beautiful and I strive to be as elegant as you!
