Tawnya & Nik

Reception Painting, Carnegie Institution for Science, Washington D.C.

Set within our Nation's Capital, the beautiful couple dances for the first time as husband and wife. Tawnya & Nik expresses their love for one another in front of family and friends, taking center stage in the rotunda of The Carnegie Institution for Science. 
This painting was started on site, capturing the stunning classically influenced interior. The glow of the mid tone against the natural hue of the marble floors surrounds the couple as they are admired by love ones. That spontaneous gaze into each others eyes as they dance as one is captivating as I attempted to express this moment in the painting. Congratulations to Tawnya and Nik!
