Last year I was lucky enough to have spent quite a bit of time travelling for work. Vegas twice, Bermuda and then Jamaica for what seemed a heavenly eternity but really was only two and a half weeks. While I was there, I worked and took in some sun and yes, I drew. I was just going through my Mac Book and realized that while I was down there I did a series of renderings for clients showing scale, color and other details. I often begin my sketches in pencil, then go back, revise and drawn in pen and ink and then another layer, fancy water color pencils.
One afternoon with a rum punch in hand I quietly sat and enjoyed the sun and thought back to the recent wedding that I had planned at The Bellagio in Las Vegas. It is hard not to be inspired while you are there. I am happy that I have many trips as some of the happiest memories of my life. And You know that I love dresses. I have spent most of my life quietly drawing dresses.
This collection of dresses are inspired by the iconic hotels of Las Vegas. Each one perfect for the bride that chooses a Vegas wedding. The hotels that I was inspired by were Caesar's Palace, The Bellagio, Paris, The Wynne, Encore and The Hard Rock Hotel. Can you guess which bride is going to which hotel?
