Interesting Painting Commission

Corn Bouquet by Elisabeth Hudgins

This watercolor painting, "Corn Bouquet" is a commissioned piece I did last winter. It has an interesting story... A patron of mine wanted to give his wife an anniversary gift that reminded her of a piece of "family lore". When they first started dating, he was asked to her home to have dinner with her family to Meet The Parents. He, thoughtfully, brought along some..........Corn. Ever since, her family has teased him about how romantic he was to bring her a Bouquet of Corn. Well, I say he more than made up for it, 25 years later, when he commissioned a painting for his bride of the famous Corn Bouquet. Extra husband points!!
